Vehicular Speed Limiting Control System in Critical Zones Using Global Positioning System

Road accidents usually occur due to drivers' excessive speeds which often lead to loss of property or even casualties. Given that, road safety is a practice that all drivers must adhere to especially in critical zones where there is a higher risk of possible loss of property or lives. Despite all the measures given to drivers such as imposing traffic rules and attempts such as making use of speed limiters for speed regulation in critical zones, there is still a high number of reported accidents that exist due to drivers' carelessness. The project aims to solve the problem by having a speed limiting control system that would act upon drivers' carelessness especially in critical zones. The proposed system will make use of the Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to determine the location of critical zones and automatically adjust the speed of the vehicle once it reaches the speed limit.
