Now a day’s we see that vehicles stolen are on the rise and police has registered so many cases of vehicle stolen every day. Ironically, most of the stolen vehicles are not recovered. Hence it has become a serious issue over years. Besides this world has facing a very serious problem due to accidents of vehicles on roads, it causes loss of life and property. Therefore I have come up with a concept of developing a wireless technology based vehicle theft information system to provide security to vehicles from theft. In this concept if someone tries to steal the vehicle then a SMS is send to the owner mobile through GSM technology that your vehicle has been stolen. An added advantage of this system is that the owner can disable the ignition of the vehicle and prevent theft of the vehicle. Also it protects the vehicle from accidents due to glare of eyes of driver by high beam headlights on roads. Since this system contain automatic head light system which can automatically judge when the headlight beam needs to be lowered when some vehicle approaching in front of our vehicle and prevent accidents.
