Road passenger transport contract Between the articles 906 and 916 of the Turkish Commercial Code, the provisions of the former Law are regulated. Road transports have an administrative legal aspect as well as civil legal aspects. The administrative aspect of road transport is regulated by the Law on Road Transport, Road Transport and Road Traffic Law. But there is no agreement regulating international passenger transport by road. The most important part of passenger transport by road is passenger transportation by intercity buses. In the legislation, some regulations have been made on the compulsory personal accident insurance for the passengers and on the access of the disabled passengers to the transportation service. However, when the legislation was examined, it was seen that passenger rights were not regulated as a whole. In the European Union, passenger rights are arranged separately according to the vehicle and transportation method the passengers have chosen for travel. (1) Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 February 2004 establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights, and repealing Regulation. (2) Regulation (EC) No 1371/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2007 on rail passengers¡¯ rights and obligations.

(4) Regulation (EU) No 181/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 concerning the rights of passengers in bus and coach transport and amending Regulation. From these regulations, our country has been transferred to our domestic law by issuing Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 February 2004 establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights, and repealing Regulation. And we will also examine the problems in the framework of this Regulation within the framework of Regulation (EU) No 181/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 concerning the rights of passengers in bus and coach transport and amending Regulation.
