Abstract

It is observed that, the major hindrance on road is due to heavy traffic flow during peak hours especially when people commute to work. The total number of vehicles or objects exceeds its capacity by causing a blockage for emergency vehicles such as fire fighter and rescue vehicles, furthermore wastage of fuels adds more to the environmental pollution which is not adoptable for a country’s economic growth. In order to develop an efficient, reliable, cleaner and safer mode of transportation, it is necessary to make the road transportation system automated as much as possible. To track the vehicle, we need to send the message to GSM device, so that it gets activated. It also gets activated by detecting the accident on the vibration sensor connected to the Arduino UNO controller. Once the GSM is activated it receives the last latitude and longitude position value and send message to the emergency server which is predefined in the program.

  1. The system detects accidents using a vibration sensor and alerts emergency services within seconds.
  2. GSM and GPS modules provide real-time location and information about the accident to responders.
  3. The system monitors vehicle speed, alcohol presence, seat belt usage, and passenger count.
  4. A manual switch allows drivers to cancel alerts if no casualties occur, optimizing emergency response.
  5. The proposed solution aims to improve emergency services and reduce road accident mortality rates.
