Abstract

In countries with dense traffic like India, emergency vehicles (EVs) frequently encounter delays due to civilian drivers trailing them closely to bypass congestion. This illegal tailgating behaviour poses serious safety threats and delays life-saving responses. Despite its prevalence, monitoring and enforcement remain minimal. This paper presents an innovative, real-time detection and penalty system integrated into emergency vehicles. It utilizes RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags, distance-measuring sensors, and on board image processing to identify unauthorized followers. By filtering scenarios based on traffic light conditions and congestion levels, the system ensures fair enforcement. Its deployment promises to improve emergency response efficiency and promote disciplined traffic behaviour.
