Vehicle Speed Detection And Control Using RFID With arduino

Nowadays road accident is a daily occurrence in our daily life. Most of the road accidents are happened due to the rash driving or reckless driving. Too many people are losing their lives because of others mistakes. At present, traffic polices have to use a handheld radar gun to detect rash driving and aim at the vehicles to record its speed. If the vehicle exceeds the speed limit, nearest police station is informed to stop the speeding vehicle. This is an ineffective process because after detecting one has to inform the same and a lot of time is wasted. So, the aim of this project is to develop an effective device to detect rash driving on highways and to alert the traffic authorities in case of any speed violation. The proposed system will check on rash driving by calculating the speed of a vehicle using the time taken to travel between the two set points at a fixed distance. The speed limit is set by the police who use the system depending upon the traffic at the specific location. If the vehicle crosses the speed limit, a buzzer sounds alerting the police. This concept can be extended in future by integrating a camera with the system which could capture the image of the number plate of the vehicle to send that to the traffic authorities.
