Abstract

Traffic accidents are increasing periodically at an alarming rate and it is a serious problem throughout the globe particularly in developing countries like Ethiopia. There are a number of factors that contribute to the risk of traffic accidents. Some include vehicle design, road design, road environment, driving skills, impairment due to alcohol or drugs, notably distracted driving and speeding. And due to the lack of emergency facilities in our country the person involved in the car accident usually dies at the scene.The aim of this paper is to deploy and develop a system which will provide an optimum solution to the above stated draw back Once the accident has been dedicated (significantly within less time) a message will be sent through the GSM module with the basic information to first aid center within a few seconds covering geographical coordinates, the time and angle in which a vehicle accident had occurred with the help of the GPS module. This alert message is sent to the rescue team in a short time, which will help in saving valuable lives.
