Abstract
The aim of this project is to reduce the number of road accidents occurring due to bad roads, additionally it also provides vital information on the quality of roads which can be used while laying new roads. A model car is designed with all the necessary sensors placed in it, the car is then driven around on existing roads where it records the road information. The information initially collected is made available for all users using navigation systems. The driver is alerted when nearing an inconsistency in the road. Designed and implemented using GPS and a Raspberry pi
