In this study an efficient vehicle road safety and location monitoring system is designed for tracking the vehicle location as well as to notify the driver about road conditions. The proposed tracking system combines smart phone application with microcontroller based system which is embedded with an acceleration sensing module and a navigation system. The microcontroller interfaced device is installed inside the vehicle whose position, abnormal acceleration variations i.e. relevant information for road condition is to be determined and tracked in real time. A microcontroller is used to gather geographic coordinates of vehicle, locate acceleration variations and to transmit an update to database. On the basis of this data the smart phone application will display the instantaneous location of vehicle to user. Highlighting feature of this system consists of a sensing module which will evaluate the road condition in real time as well as analyses the accident zone on a particular road from the data stored in database and provides the evaluation result to smart phone.
