parked it as it has blocked a passage. The notification
content and message will be as shown in Fig.4. Such a
system alone will be quite a useless tool and people
may ignore its notification, but if you employee another
system that might generate penalties in case of ignoring
the complaints targeted to the same person than it
becomes more interesting. So this first notifying system
will be interfaced with another one that will be
connected with the police central station that handles
the problems of traffic and street security. This second
system may generate fines if you ignore the
notifications done via emails. The fine will be
generated after a predefined period of time set in the
first system the one that sends the notification emails.

street [DPSHTRR16].

very fast like in real time as it does not require other
extra procedures to register them in the digital register
of finance ministry. The procedure a police might
follow to set a fine to a car driver is like accessing any
other web applications. First the police need to log in
into the system and then he can put another fine if he
sees that there is any law breaking behavior in the
streets, his form looks like as in Fig.5. The police will
fill the predefined fields of the form through his
interface and as well he has to specify the rule of the
street code that the driver might have infringed. Then
the system will automatically generate the different Figure 6: Police setting the fine to the car

to the owner of the car and as well if for example he
passes when the street lighter is red it brings to his
driver license cancellation for a predefined period of
time the same with his car license which may be
revoked for a period of time. So in such case the owner
losses the right to drive and to bring out of garage his
car. All this action will be taken automatically by the
system without the police to do it.
