Abstract

A type of signal detouring in which traffic lights are permitted to operate prior to full functionality, where full functionality has is normal functioning of the traffic lights. This system can be used to control traffic signals in the way that they will enable the car in the middle of the road to proceed, though with permission and not blocking vehicles going ahead of or behind to aid response time for emergency vehicles. Pre-emption would be employed to create signals in public transit for cases where users demand access for critical needs such as life-saving ambulances, special vehicles in crowded cities, critical intersections, delays in traffic etc.


Ambulances are most often used to give themselves the advantage of reaching the patient in time, but being blocked by all unnecessary signals, congestion before responding to urgent calls is low and hence the response time is hugely delayed. So, to reduce response times and clear traffic paths, this system is created. In this paper, GPS in cell phones, and the internet are used to expedite response systems, to speed up and improve dispatching of emergency vehicles beforehand in a creative and cost-effective method. The processor will be called Raspberry Pi-3, which has built-in internal Internet of Things functionality, an application is developed for emergency vehicle users.
