Abstract

 In today’s world, obtaining a driving license is a crucial milestone in every adult's life. However, ensuring that only competent and responsible drivers receive a license is essential for road safety. Many road accidents occur due to driver negligence, lack of awareness, or impaired driving, highlighting the need for a stricter and more efficient licensing process. This project presents an IoT-based Driving License Detection and Safety System designed to evaluate the knowledge, mental awareness, and responsiveness of a driver before issuing a license. The system aims to enhance the standard of the licensing mechanism, reduce road accidents, and improve public safety by integrating smart technology into the evaluation process. The proposed system integrates NodeMCU, an IoT-enabled microcontroller, with multiple sensors to monitor various driving parameters. These sensors assess driver alertness, reaction time, alcohol influence, heart rate, and adherence to safety protocols while operating a vehicle. Additionally, the system includes a real-time monitoring framework that detects unsafe driving behaviors, such as drowsiness, excessive speeding, or erratic steering. If any violations are detected, the system can immediately alert authorities or automatically disqualify the driver from obtaining a license
