Abstract – The movement of goods and services by road is the only mode of transport in high altitude terrain regions. Most of the large scale transportation is done by trucks and any kind of breakdown, accidents, over loading, reckless driving and not giving way for uphill vehicles results in traffic bottleneck and fatal aftermath. During monsoons the transportation is either halted or more challenging amidst rain, fog, landslides and deteriorated roads. The objective is to design an AI integrated IoT cloud mobile platform to ensure a safe and controlled driving environment.

I INTRODUCTION
Road traffic accidents are responsible for 1.2 million deaths worldwide each year and will become the 3rd largest contributor to the global burden of diseases after ischemic heart diseases and depression. [1] Ghat roads are access routes into the mountains with number of hairpin bends, which is very risky as compare to normal routes. So chances of accidents in ghat section is more because of narrow road width, sharp bends, improper camber and valley side. While driving on roads at Ghats section many drivers faces accidents which result them into serious injuries or even death. The main reason behind this accidents is curves and bends of road while turning in Ghats. It becomes difficult to see vehicle coming from other lane at turning. If two vehicles comes face to face while turning it creates a chance of accidents and it becomes difficult to handle. [2] Road users see it as a major cause of concern as it affects their travel plans. However, time restriction on lorry movement failed to yield any results as overloaded vehicles continue to develop snag while negotiating the hair bends resulting in traffic congestion.
