Abstract

Road safety in Malaysia is a major concern due to frequent floods and accidents caused by overtaking. These issues result in significant injuries and losses. In this paper, we introduce a new system called the Safe Driving Tool (SDT). The SDT integrates a Flood Detection System (FDS) and a Vehicle Overtaking System (VOS) using Long-Range (LoRa)communication technology. The FDS continuously monitors water levels in flood-prone areas. It alerts drivers about potential hazards through vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication. Simultaneously, the VOS enables safe overtaking maneuvers. It does this by exchanging information with nearby vehicles through vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication. Through testing and experimentation, we have shown that the SDT system effectively reduces accident risks and losses associated with floods and overtaking. The system's performance under various conditions confirms the reliability and effectiveness of LoRa communication technology in enhancing vehicular safety. This study represents a significant advancement in road safety. It combines flood detection and overtaking assistance into a single unified system, addressing two major causes of road accidents in Malaysia. The integration of V2I and V2V communication provides a comprehensive solution that improves driver awareness and decision-making. This ultimately leads to safer driving environments and enhanced driver convenience.
