Abstract: Vehicles are one of the most important sources of transport and the number of vehicular deaths occurring in hill stations is increasing day by day. The main focus of this work is finding a feasible initiative using RFID technology for effective navigation with maximal safety and minimal risk in exceptional road conditions, which may be due to weather, climatic conditions or geographical locations. The hairpin bends and steep turns in hill station roads is a major cause of accidents. To prevent any untoward incidents, we propose to use the RFID (radio frequency) tags and detectors to alert the driver of the incoming turn or bend some 100 meters before the turning point. The RF tag will alert the driver in the form of an LED signal. Acceleration which is in a fixed coordinate system makes sure any changes in the angle are indicated by the accelerometer sensor connected to the Arduino. An LCD is connected to the Arduino which displays the sea level, left and right turn as text with the turning angle. Also, the buzzer attached to the Arduino gives a sound alert. In this paper, we will focus primarily on avoiding accidents and road crashes in hill stations and remote environments by making use of RFID technology.
