An Automatic Traffic Violation Ticketing System Using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology

Abstract

Travel convenience is impacted by a number of factors, including the condition of the road, traffic, length of trip, accidents, speed, etc. The daily increase in accident rates poses the biggest concern. These events not only result in fatalities but also increase the nation's financial losses. Traffic congestion is brought on by road users' lack of discipline and sentiments, which may result in traffic offenses. The goals of this research are to curb any traffic infractions as well as reduce corruption and nepotism on the road. This system was developed using an Atmega328 microcontroller, which instructs the system to identify any driver who violates a traffic light and send an SMS message to the violator and the road management of the violation and the location where it was done. This identification is done with the help of a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader, which gets the unique ID of the vehicle and sends back the information to the microcontroller, which now instructs the GSM module to send the SMS message.
