Advancing Road Safety: A YOLOV8-Based Approach to Automated Traffic Violation Detection and Enforcement

The implementation of an Automated Traffic Violation Detection and Enforcement System (ATVDES) utilizing YOLOV8 (You Only Look Once - 8) technology presents a significant stride in enhancing road safety. With a hfocus on prevalent violations like signal jumping and overspeeding, ATVDES addresses the urgent need to mitigate risks posed by unchecked traffic violations. Leveraging YOLOV8 enables realtime detection, swift intervention, and seamless enforcement of traffic regulations. By integrating Number Plate Recognition (NPR), the system efficiently identifies vehicle owners associated with violations, facilitating accountability and compliance. The issuance of automated email notifications further reinforces awareness and serves as a deterrent against future infractions. Through this integrated approach, ATVDES not only promotes road safety but also fosters a culture of responsibility and respect for traffic laws, ultimately contributing to safer and more sustainable urban environments.
