At the point of road tunnel safety, the feeling of the people in tunnels must be considered at the very beginning step, the design step. The fact that people in the long tunnels are often unable to see both ends might cause syndromes of claustrophobia. Besides, the role of the transportation control center should also be considered. At the event of accidents, the command should come to either under the authority of the transportation control center which knows the real situation in the tunnels best, or the highway police unit which could arrive the scene first?

If the event upgrades to the extent that central government gets involve, what is needed to be done by the staffs of the transportation control center to be appropriate.
