Abstract :
The Next Generation Traffic Management System (UTMS´21) is a new initiative to be developed by NPA (the national Police Agency) of the Japanese government. UTMS´21 can be developed by adding image processing technology, HELP (help system for emergency life saving by public safety agency) and DS3 (driving safety support system) to the existing UTMS (the universal traffic management system). Above all, DS 3 must be a core program of the UTMS´21 and the essential technologies such as infrared beacon and driver´s license IC card will be used for increasing the safety of driver as well as decreasing the occurrence of traffic accidents
