ABSTRACT:
On Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance (ORVBA) is going to be a good solution for the people who seek help
in the remote locations with mechanical issues of their vehicle. Users of the On Road Vehicle Breakdown
Assistance will be the registered public and they will be getting connected with the particular mechanic through
the trustworthy On Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance (ORVBA) system. Because only the legally licensed
and approved mechanics are enlisted in the On Road Vehicle Breakdown Assistance (ORVBA) Finder
Project. Also they are under monitoring by the ORVBA system for not charging any extra service fee from the
users as every user is updating their feedback about the availed service through ORVBA system.

I. INTRODUCTION
Modern vehicles today have advanced
driver-assistance systems integrated to their
electronics and manufacturers refresh their car
models to add more of these features into their cars.
Early advanced driver-assistance systems include
electronic stability control, anti-lock brakes, lane
departure warning, adaptive cruise control and
traction control. These systems can be affected by
mechanical alignment adjustments. This has led
many manufacturers to require electronic resets for
these systems, after a mechanical alignment is
performed.
When it comes to car breakdown, it could
mean more than just the car’s technical defects as it
could lead to injuries and fatalities because getting
out of the car to check for breakdowns can be very
