Abstract :
Illegal drag racing or street racing is a prominent safety concern in many major cities. This is especially the case in areas which have sections of road which are straight, level, and have low traffic at various times of day or night. This paper proposes a control mechanism for a system which is capable of detecting illegal street races and reporting them to the police automatically as they are occurring.
