Road accidents and traffic violations are common issue for all the countries. Most of the accidents are caused because of unsafe driving. There are rules and regulations provided by law in order to avoid road accidents and to drive carefully. There are many Information Communication Technology (ICT) applications to detect vehicles that violate the rules. These are not efficient because it does not have evidences or proofs to take a proper action. People nowadays are not tend to drive safe. There are violations such as over speeding, red-light violation and overtaking another vehicle on single and double line violations. In this system a framework to identify who breaks the rules will be detected and take actions according to the rule that has broken. To identify them, image processing technologies, tools and hardware tools such as ultrasonic sensors, raspberry-pi pc and cameras will be used. A key benefit of this system is that it can reduce the number of road violations that can happen and people will be afraid to violate rules because of the automated system. The systems currently available does not support all the features, this system will be covering red light violations, over-speeding and vehicle overtaking violations as well as this system will be using techniques such as background subtraction, object tracing and ultrasonic sensors. “VirtualPolice” system attempts to result reliable and more efficient comparing to systems that are available. This system is designed to collect evidences of the violations and take actions accordingly. When a violation is updated the system is programmed to notify nearest policemen android devices.
