ICTCT 2025 special submission

The Traffic Safety Research journal opens a special submission track in connection to the 37th ICTCT conference, held in Berlin, Germany, on 23–24 October 2025.

The conference participants may submit full papers based on the work presented at the conference. The ‘Acknowledgments’ section of the paper must contain the text: ‘An earlier version of this work was presented at the 37th ICTCT conference, held in Berlin, Germany, on 23–24 October 2025.’

At the start of the submission, choose the section ‘Special submission ICTCT 2025 Berlin’. This will ensure that your manuscript follows the correct editorial track.

The general guidelines for authors can be found here. We strongly recommend the authors to get familiar with the suggested submission template, particularly with regards to the compulsory declarations and statements to be included at the end of the manuscript.

All submissions will be subject to the journal's standard peer review process (read more here), handled by the regular editorial team as well as invited guest editors from the German Aerospace Center, DLR (the conference host).

Submission period: 1 October 2025–31 January 2026

Publication fees: Traffic Safety Research applies a production fee for the accepted manuscripts. The fee is kept intentionally low and is directly based on the upfront cost to prepare an ‘average’ TSR article for publication (no profit intended).

Authors affiliated with a TSR sponsor organisation should enquire whether their publication is covered by a special agreement (the eligibility is determined by the main affiliation of the first author). For example, the ICTCT can cover up to ten publications by its members—‘first come, first served’ applies.
