Abstract

The essence of administrative law is constant changing of regulations and norms in this area due to the evolving social reality, changes going on within the social environment of administration and administrative law. Often, this changing is motivated by the desire to improve the effectiveness of existing legal regulations in order to enhance personal safety,
which is justified by the fact that administrative law serves interests of the individual. The aim of this article is to demonstrate the relationship between changes in administrative law and the personal safety of those subjected to this law. The main thesis of the article is that ill-considered, overly frequent changes to administrative law regulations and standards may pose a threat to personal safety. The research question was formulated as follows: How can threats to personal safety, resulting from changes in administrative law, be mitigated? The research was based on three selected areas of study: the area relating to the casuistry of administrative law provisions, the procedural area related to legal security, and the area of performing public tasks related to road maintenance in the context of their decategorisation.
It seems that the research conducted is of significant importance not so much for changing administrative law as for educating and informing about this change. The main method used in the study is the dogmatic-legal method and the method of legal text analysis. The main conclusion of the study is the proposal to inform and educate about the changes being introduced, both in the context of those applying the law (officials) and those to whom the law is addressed, affecting their administrative and legal situations, in order to eliminate the risks resulting from too frequent, ill-considered and complicated changes in administrative law.
