Abstract
This study offers a comprehensive analysis of the perceptions regarding the gaps in traffic injury laws and the level of judicial security in Ecuador. By employing a neutrosophic approach, which incorporates degrees of truth, indeterminacy, and falsity, the study synthesizes data from legal professionals to assess the need for legislative reform. The use of the Indeterminate Likert Scale and the Triple Refined Indeterminate Neutrosophic Sets (TRINS) enriches the evaluation of nuanced opinions on traffic injuries that result in minimal disability. The resulting insights reveal a significant recognition of the inadequacies within the current legal framework and highlight a societal demand for enhanced legal measures and improved trust in judicial processes. This study underscores the urgency for legal reforms that would bridge the current legislative voids, ensuring justice and protection for traffic injury victims, thereby strengthening the legal system’s accountability and public confidence.
