Abstract
This paper is about the more sensitive and innovative way of maintaining the traffic speed standards along with impartial toll distribution for every citizen passes through the highway giving prior importance to the human safety, security and egalitarianism. It's a novel replacement for the dull conventional traffic system. In this, the time of passing of a vehicle is recorded at every instant where the scanners are placed to deduce the fair toll amount from their account and to record their speed. Even if, we prefer to use Radio-frequency identification tags on every vehicle that passes the toll gate, on the worst side, the Optical Character Recognition technology is used and applied over the high contrast images being captured by the cameras. The time-and-speed thresholds between the checkpoints are then calculated and have been set up accordingly. The vehicles exceeding the thresholds are noted and are charged with appropriate penalty. This results in an impartial and symmetric way of tracking speed resulting on an effect over the fear-factor of drivers on taking up speed. This work aims to provide the realtime speed monitoring system and fair toll distribution system thus ensuring more reliability and quality to the Indian traffic system.
