Now-a-days we hear news about accidents check on rash driving by calculating the

the cases main reason of accident is over travel between the two set points at a fixed
speed. Although all highways do have distance. A set point consists of a pair of
signboards indicating maximum speed limit sensors comprising of an IR transmitter and
