IV. ROAD ACCIDENTAL PROBLEMS:
Road accidents can result in a variety of problems, both for the individuals involved in the accident
and for society as a whole. Some of the problems that can occur after a road accident include:
1. Physical injuries: Accidents can result in a range of injuries, from minor bruises and cuts to
serious injuries such as broken bones, head trauma, and spinal cord injuries.
2. Financial Costs: Accidents can result in a range of financial costs, including medical expenses,
property damage, and lost wages.
3. Increased Traffic: Accidents can cause traffic delays and congestion, which can result in
increased travel time and decreased productivity.
4. Loss of Life: The most tragic outcome of a road accident is the loss of life. Accidents can result in
fatalities, which can have a profound impact on the families and communities of the victims.
Overall, road accidents can have serious and far-reaching consequences for everyone involved. It is
important for individuals to take steps to reduce the risk of accidents and for society to invest in
programs and initiatives aimed at improving road safety.
There are various kinds of applications which focus on the IoT to handle the emergencies like-
• Fire Hazards Problems (Residents)-
To address the issue of fire hazards, there are numerous types of IoT based smart devices. But the
devices could malfunction on a massive scale. As a result, the notification is sent to the control unit
and the drone operation is immediately streamed live to adjacent ambulance and fire brigade stations,
police stations, etc.

• Senior Citizen Assistance-
As per census 2011, the no of senior citizens from any disability in their old age is 53 Lakhs
approximately. In case of emergency help for them, the assistance can be invited to help in the daily
routine. The notification will be sent by wearable devices. Alerts will be sent in case of medical
problems. It offers physical, practical, and emotional support, and under a government plan, the
expenses will be deducted from their pension.
• Disaster Victims (Consumer):
Delivering disaster aid to victims quickly not only restores lost assets, but also maintains their
aspirations and invests in communities' longer-term economic and democratic health. All kinds of
help like emergencies in food, shelter, economy, etc. will provide through donors.
