Abstract

Dangerous road conditions may be the result of natural events, such as tropical rains and flooding, that make driving unsafe. Dangerous conditions can also arise from the poor physical condition of a road and its surroundings. It may cause road accidents. Also while driving in the night just the headlights might not be a sufficient assistance for driver .Unexpected hurdles on road may cause more accidents. Also because of bad road conditions, fuel consumption of the vehicle increases; causing wastage of precious fuel .We proposed this system ‘Advanced Accident Prevention And Notification System’ to inform the driver about the pothole and controlling the speed of the vehicle and also the information has been stored in cloud and the notification about pothole has been sent to the Road Maintenance department to take a remedy to maintain the road. This system uses ultrasonic sensor to sense the potholes and GPS to track the location and wifi module to transmit the data
