Overspeeding and Rash Driving Vehicle Detection System

The present world is advancing at the speed of light in the field of trade and business, and the development in technology has been significantly influencing this growth. However, transportation by road is one of the major factors that have been affecting the commercial development of our country. With the increasing vehicular population and their movement on the roads, accidents are also steadily increasing. It has become a nightmare for the authorities to prevent or reduce such fatal accidents on the road and all their efforts are in vain. According to the Indian road accidents survey, every year there are more than 135,000 [1] incidents of road accidents. Out of these, most of them are due to rash driving. According to Indian Constitution, IPC section 279 [2], rash driving is an offence. So, our idea is to design a module which can detect the vehicle whenever it is rashly driven or driven above permissible speed limit, and transmit the data to the concerned authority. For example, when the cab driver is driving rashly or beyond the speed limit a message would be transmitted to the cab owner or the cab agency stating this, or the police could monitor vehicles to check whether they are driven correctly or not.
