The increase of the people mobility has led to vehicles number increasing, which have direct influence on harmful products increasing, which appear during the vehicle exploitation. The wear of tires, brakes, clutches, as well as the wear of the road, is considered as very harmful for the people health and besides that it have the negative influence on the environment. In the areas, where the traffic frequency is very high, and besides that, if those are densely populated areas, the different health problems appear in people. Because, it is necessary to redirect traffic by different detours, in order to avoid the people health problems in densely populated areas. In this paper, it will be shown the total emission of the particles, by sectors for the Republic of Serbia, for the period from 2001 to 2017, as well how much influence has the traffic on particles formation. Besides that it has been given an analysis of vehicles participating in particle emission, in function of the formation source.
