Abstract

Efficient ambulance response in urban areas is often hindered by traffic congestion and drivers failing to yield right-of-way, leading to avoidable fatalities. This paper proposes an IoT-enabled system (IAPTVC) that automates detection and penalization of vehicles ob- structing ambulances. Using GPS for real-time ambulance tracking, short-range wireless sensors (RFID/DSRC) for proximity detection, ANPR cameras for capturing license plates, and a secure cloud backend, the system monitors whether motorists yield during an emergency. Violations trigger automated reporting to authorities, generating fines via a centralized dashboard. Feasibility analysis shows all components are mature and integrable with existing smart-city infrastructure. Operational tests (simulated) indicate the system can function autonomously without burdening ambulance crews. Economically, initial costs are offset by reduced healthcare expenditures and fine revenues. In sum, the proposed solution promises to enhance emergency response, improve traffic law com- pliance through real-time enforcement, and aligns with smart city goals of data-driven public safety management.
