A lot of accidents are happening while people are attempting to overtake heavy vehicles on the road. Due to their large size, majority of the visibility of the road is lost for the drivers following behind the heavy vehicles. So driver has no idea about what's happening in front of the heavy vehicle. A wrong decision can even results potential death of the passengers and drivers of the light vehicles. This paper introduces a technology to stream video wirelessly from a camera, which is mounted on the front of the heavy vehicle to the vehicle following behind the heavy vehicle. The heavy vehicle is equipped with a camera, Raspberry PI and a QR code. The light vehicle is equipped with a Camera, Raspberry PI 3 B and display. The heavy vehicle captures the image and streamed to the light vehicles through a secured hotspot. The credentials of the Wi-Fi hotspot is encoded in a QR code. The light vehicle will scan this QR code in order to establish a connection. Once a connection is established, the heavy vehicle will start to send the visuals from the camera to the connected vehicle, the connected vehicle will stream the video.
