The development of the investigation is based on a diagnosis about the current situation of the company through online surveys applied to its administrative staff, associates; internal and external customers due to the critical situation of the country caused by COVID-19. Also, the information about road infrastructure of two routes Riobamba -Cuenca, Riobamba Guayaquil was also obtained to verify its consditions. At the end of the investigative stage, it was possible to show that the company lacks a management system, the human department staff ignores road safety procedures, vehicles and drivers lack of safety equipment. Therefore, a road safety management system is proposed based on the ISO 39001: 2012 regulation which contains each of the 10 requirements like the context of the organization, leadership, planning, support, operation, performance evaluation, continuous improvement. For this reason, it is recommended to implement a road safety management system based on the ISO 39001: 2012 standard, in order to reach the objective of reducing the amount of deaths and injuries caused by traffic accidents.
