ESP32 Based Vehicle Accident & Alcohol Detection System Using GSM-GPS
IoT Smart Vehicle Safety Project
Project Overview
This project is designed to improve road safety by integrating accident detection, alcohol sensing, GPS tracking, and GSM communication using ESP32. The system can prevent drunk driving and automatically send emergency alerts with vehicle location during accidents.
Main Objectives
- Detect alcohol consumption before driving.
- Prevent vehicle ignition if alcohol is detected.
- Detect accidents automatically.
- Send GPS location through GSM SMS alerts.
- Improve emergency response time.

Required Components
| Component | Quantity |
|---|---|
| ESP32 Development Board | 1 |
| MQ-3 Alcohol Sensor | 1 |
| GPS Module (NEO-6M) | 1 |
| GSM Module (SIM800L/SIM900A) | 1 |
| Vibration Sensor / MPU6050 | 1 |
| Relay Module | 1 |

Working Principle
1. Alcohol Detection
- MQ-3 sensor continuously monitors alcohol concentration.
- If alcohol exceeds the threshold value:
- ESP32 activates buzzer.
- Relay turns OFF vehicle ignition.
- LCD displays "Alcohol Detected".
2. Accident Detection
- Vibration sensor or MPU6050 detects collision or rollover.
- ESP32 confirms the accident condition.
3. GPS Tracking
- GPS module obtains Latitude and Longitude.
- Location is used in emergency SMS alerts.
4. GSM Alert System
Sample Alert Message:
ALERT! Vehicle Accident Detected. Location: https://maps.google.com/?q=17.3850,78.4867 Need Immediate Assistance.
