Accident prevention has always been an important issue for governments and car manufacturers across the world. Roughly 1.5 million people are killed in road accidents annually in India. The primary causes of accidents are broken and weathered roads, hazardous weather conditions, as well as human errors such as over speeding, distracted driving, and not following road safety rules. The traffic police work hard to enforce strict rules and maintain accident-free roads, but this hasn’t proven to be efficient. A vehicular ad hoc network (VANET), as the name says, is a network consisting of nodes. These nodes depict vehicles on the road. This project aims to use this technology with K-Nearest Neighbour Classifier (KNN) to create a prototype of a system which can notify drivers of an impending accident caused by forward collisions, rear collision etc., thus enabling them to take immediate action and prevent it.
