Abstract

 Since India gained independence, the number of vehicles in the country has increased by 170 times, while the road infrastructure has only expanded nine times in proportion. The rate of vehicle population growth is approximately two and a half million per year. Road fatalities far exceed those from rail, air, and terrorism, and it is predicted that by 2030, road accidents will be the fifth largest cause of human deaths. Technology, specifically IoT-based intelligent transportation systems (ITS), can address the challenges posed by inadequate road infrastructure and development. International consortia can collaborate to develop solutions tailored to such conditions. This chapter presents facts related to Indian transport and road accidents and proposes an IoT-based intelligent transportation system, termed IoTV, to improve transportation and reduce accident rates. The authors recommend an IoTV solution for ITS in their paper.
