Abstract

Increasing number of human populations will increase number of vehicles on the road. Because of that, when the number of vehicles in Malaysia increases the number of accidents on the road also will increase. Therefore, it is important to improve the safety of road users to reduce the number of accidents in Malaysia. This project is one of the little efforts that can be done to reduce accidents that may be caused by the breakdown cars that stopped at roadside or middle of the road. Collisions may occur between the breakdown vehicle and the upcoming vehicles that does not alert and see to react and avoid the breakdown vehicle. Therefore, the new design production of hazard triangle can increase warning precaution to other road users to warn them the hazard in front of them and they will have a lot of time to prepare avoiding the obstacles. Nowadays, the number of hazard triangle provided in every car is only one. However, when the car is having a breakdown at night, rain or fog the hazard triangle will be insufficient to warn upcoming drivers that have limited vision towards the only one hazard triangle and the driver will not have enough time to react to avoid the breakdown vehicles in front of them. Therefore, the new design of hazard triangle in this project will help to increase the number of hazard triangle without using any space in the bonnet and can be placed at a very safe distance to warn the upcoming drivers much earlier.
