Abstract :
Road accidents claim exceedingly high number of lives every year. The victim´s life depends upon the mercy of others. The delay of emergency vehicle reaching the accident spot and the traffic in between accident spot and hospital has increased the chances of death of the victim. Tracing the accident spot is the major issue faced by emergency unit. To overcome the drawback we propose a system which is able to automatically detect road accidents using sensors, notify them to nearby emergency services and relatives through GSM. It is fully automated, finds the accident spot using Google map, and controls the traffic lights, helping to reach hospital in time. This system can be effectively implemented in high populated countries like India.
