Road traffic accidents are a leading cause of death in
developed and developing countries. It has been shown that road
accident reporting systems could reduce their effects by
minimizing response time and mapping road accident-prone
areas. This paper provides an overview of the systems and
applications for road accident reporting and drivers’ behavior
awareness. A field survey, conducted in Dar es Salaam region in
Tanzania, investigated the current state of road traffic accident
reporting. Findings showed that the main means of reporting
road accidents were physical reporting and police emergency
phone calls. The absence of alternative means for reporting road
accidents causes information delay and lack of precise accident

by proposing a mobile application system for road accident
reporting and drivers’ over-speed aw |
