Abstract

The term “transport” has a rich content related to its social functions, which determine its goals and responsibilities. It has also a long history associated with both state-building processes and civilization transformations. In principle, it is impossible to imagine economy, social life or every-day human existence without them. Their creation is the result of inspiration, searching for a way to make ideas come true, acquiring knowledge and hard work of men. The development of transport would not have been possible on a large scale if the knowledge of how to be mobile had not been passed on through generations. It enabled among others the creation of a coherent “memory bank””, which facilitated the “transport education”.
