A huge number of valuable lives are lost due to road traffic mishaps every day. The general causes are driver’s fault and delayed response from emergency services. There is a requirement to have an efficient road accident detection and information communication system in place to save wounded persons. A system that sends information messages to nearby emergency services regarding the accident place for timely reply is extremely in need. Literature survey indicates that, various automatic accident detection systems are suggested, developed by researchers from worldwide. It includes accident detection using smart phones, GSM and GPS technologies, vehicular ad-hoc networks and mobile applications and many more. The working of an automatic road accident recognition system and information communication system in every means of transport is very vital. This paper presents a brief study of vehicle tracking systems which is used to save affected person’s life. The tracking system mostly used with vehicles for the purpose of tracking their location as and when required, additionally the few system includes arrangements to raise alarm under certain preset critical conditions like fire or accident.

GSM, GPS, Vehicle tracking system, IR sensor, Alcohol sensors.
