Method and system for preventing traffic congestion of vehicles

Abstract:

Disclosed herein is method and system for preventing traffic congestion of vehicles. Real-time traffic data related to a primary route being traversed by a vehicle, and location information of the vehicle are collected and analyzed to determine one or more alternative routes having less traffic congestion than the primary route. Further, congestion weightages are assigned to each of the alternative routes to identify an optimal route, having least traffic congestion, among the alternative routes. The optimal route is recommended to a user of the vehicle, thereby preventing traffic congestion. In an embodiment, the present method obtains the real-time traffic data directly from a computing device and/or one or more sensors integrated in the vehicle, and thereby accurately identifies the optimal route for the vehicle.
