Abstract
On the basis of data, collected by the Border Guards, it is not possible to determine the detailed geographical structure of vehicle traffic (passenger cars, heavy loads and coaches) crossing the eastern boundary of Poland. The sole source of information on the origin of the vehicles, coming to Poland, is constituted by the field studies. On the basis of such studies, carried out at five border crossing points (with Russia, Kaliningrad district, Belarus and Ukraine) detailed analysis was performed of the traffic of vehicles at the level of counties in Poland and districts in the countries, bordering upon Poland from the East.
