 On Road Vehicle Breakdown Help Assistance

ABSTRACT

On Road Vehicle Breakdown Help Assistance goes to be an honest solution for the people who seek
help within the remote locations with mechanical problems with their vehicle. it'll be the registered public
and that they are getting connected with the actual mechanic through the trustworthy application system.
In an existing system there are users who have their own mechanic database which is incredibly minimal.
And also, they need no idea if their vehicles are breaking down or had any mechanical issue in remote
locations or any long distant locations from their known mechanic shops. in a very proposed Here the
users of On Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance (ORVBA) system can hunt for list of mechanic at any
location or the nearby locations which can help them in an unexpected situation raised by the mechanical
problems with their vehicles.

INTRODUCTION

The On-Road Vehicle Breakdown Help Assistance Project aims to provide efficient and reliable
support to motorists who experience unexpected breakdowns or emergencies while traveling. Vehicle
breakdowns can occur at any time and can leave drivers stranded on highways, city roads, or remote
areas, leading to inconvenience, safety risks, and delays. This project seeks to address these challenges
by establishing a comprehensive assistance system that swiftly responds to breakdown situations,
ensuring the safety and well-being of motorists.
The primary objective of the On-Road Vehicle Breakdown Help Assistance Project is to offer
immediate aid and support to distressed drivers in need. This assistance will encompass a wide range
of services, including mechanical repairs, towing services, emergency fuel delivery, flat tire
replacement, jump-starting dead batteries, and other necessary on-site repairs. The project will also
prioritize the safety of motorists by promptly alerting the appropriate authorities in case of severe
accidents or medical emergencies.
To implement this project effectively, a robust infrastructure will be established, comprising of
dedicated call centers equipped with well-trained operators who can efficiently manage breakdown
requests. These call centers will operate around the clock, ensuring assistance is available 24/7,
irrespective of the time or location of the breakdown. In addition to phone-based assistance, a mobile
application will be developed, enabling motorists to request help quickly and track the progress of their
assistance in real-time.
The On-Road Vehicle Breakdown Help Assistance Project will collaborate with towing companies,
mechanics, and other service providers to ensure a wide coverage area and a rapid response time.
Strategic partnerships with local authorities, traffic control centers, and emergency services will also
be established to facilitate a coordinated approach in managing breakdown incidents.
Furthermore, the project will prioritize leveraging advanced technologies to enhance its efficiency and
effectiveness. This includes the use of GPS tracking systems to locate stranded vehicles accurately,
automated dispatching systems to optimize service allocation, and real-time communication tools to
keep motorists informed about the progress of their assistance.

OBJECTIVE

Vehicle Break Down Help Assistant is an android application that helps you locate the nearest mechanic
and book them in case a vehicle breaks down. No matter how distant you are from the city, all you have
to do is enter your car information, and the app will display a list of available mechanics who can
assist.

To achieve the above demands we have framed the following objectives:

 To build a common platform that connect with mechanical and driver.
 To design an app that can identify a mechanic from the nearest location.
 To provide on-demand fuel delivery.
 To develop an application for driver and passengers to provide a efficient assistance in case of a
vehicle break down.
