Short Message Services are increasingly being relied upon to disseminate critical information during emergencies. In recent days accident happens very common due to heavy traffic and increase in vehicle level and bad drivers, hence it requires a software to inform the service centre for instant help to save life of the people. Sending the nearest emergency service and/or police officers needed for reporting the accident can be quite tedious. The idea of this work is to reduce the time required by the emergency personnel to reach the accident area. This can be done if the information about an accident reaches the emergency services in time and accurately. The project eliminates any communication between the victim and the personnel which leads to confusion. This is done by finding the accurate position of the location by making use of the GPS services available in cell phones when the victim sends a message to the emergency number(such as 108). The project aims at reducing the severe loss due to injury and fatality rate in accidents to a great extent.
