An Arduino based embedded system in passenger car for road safety

Road accidents are one of the world's major public health and injury prevention problems. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than a million children are killed in road accidents each year, all over the world. The motivation behind this work is an attempt to make an Arduino based embedded system which makes the passenger's journey even safer and more secure. This paper handles the road discipline such as speed control in different areas and horn control in horn prohibited zones. The features included in this paper are Vehicle Speed Control in school Zone and also controlling the speed of the vehicle in different zones such as bridges, highways, cities and suburbs. It also includes Horn Control of Vehicle in No Honking Zone-Control horn disturbances in horn prohibited zones such as hospitals, public libraries, courts, schools and Alcohol detection to detect drunken driving.
