causes of accident and prevention methods/techniques, in this paper introduce a basic developed techniques used in cars. The paper represents a solution where we try to tackle the problem of loss of life and property due to drunken driving. The survey highlights the facts that total number of traffic deaths is excessive because of drowsiness of the driver. Driving a vehicle in a crowded road has become a nightmare because of the road conditions poor weather conditions, haste to reach the destination and excess of traffic. Drowsiness of driver, drink and drive are coming further major reasons for road accidents.

The fatal road accident related to former Tata Sons Chairman Cyrus Mistry on September 4 2022 has again placed the spotlight on the high quantity of death resulting from such incidents in India. Mistry, 54, changed into a dead man after his vehicle hit a divider in Maharashtra’s Palghar district when he was travelling from Ahmedabad too Mumbai. According to current National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) statistics released currently more than 1.55 lakh people had been killed in road crashes across India in 2021, a median of 426 each day or 18 each hour. This is the very best death discemment recorded in such accidents in any calendar year of 12 months. Over speeding continues to be the largest killer on Indian roads. The records from the past few years display that almost 60% of street crashes are induced by dashing. The percentage of fatalities due to rushing has been inside the 55%-57% range.

Key Words: Drowsiness, loss of property, prevention and road conditions, traffic, death ratio.

1. INTRODUCTION Driver drowsiness driving is one of the main reasons for road accidents. In current survey it shows that out of 5 accidents one accident is due to drowsiness of the driver which is approximately 20% of road accidents and it increasing gradually in every year. The survey highlights the facts that total number of traffic deaths are excessive because of drowsiness of the driver. Driving a vehicle in a crowded road has become a nightmare because of the road conditions, poor weather conditions, haste to reach the destination and excess of traffic. Drowsiness of driver, drunk and drive are coming further major reasons for road accidents. Due to less conscious we can’t take care of ours while driving that results as loss of property i.e. car, money and human life. The new system proposed will be built using ESP32 Microcontroller. The reason for selecting ESP32 Microcontroller is that it is inexpensive, supports various protocols such as wired (Serial, I2C, SPI etc.) as well as wireless(Wi-Fi, Bluetooth) which makes it suitable for our application. Drowsiness is determined using Eye Blink Sensor which is basically an IR Sensor that can determine whether the eyes are closed for certain threshold amount of time. An alcohol sensor is used to monitor whether the driver is drunk or not. In any condition if the driver is drowsy an alert is sent as a message through the ESP32 Microcontroller over as SMS. LED and Buzzer are used for local indication. Solving the problem became critical when the design of earlier accident prevention systems was found ineffective for alerting the driver. In this paper, the discussed part will be road accidents, their causes, prevention methods.

Impact Factor value: 7.529

In 2020, the Indian nation with the very best variety of street accidents changed to Tamil Nadu, with over 45 thousand cases reported, accompanied with the aid of Madhya Pradesh, with over 42 thousand pronounced road accidents. 1.2 Causes. A street twist of fate is most undesirable issue to take place for an avenue user, even though they manifest quite regularly. The most unfortunate component is that we do not learn from our mistakes. Most of the street users are pretty well aware of the general rules and protection measures even as they use the roads; however, it’s only a small part of them who are lax, which leads to accidents and crashes. An important reason for accidents and crashes is human error. A number of the common behaviour of human beings that leads to twist of fate: 1) Over speeding. 2) Drunken drive. 3) Distractions to driver.
