Abstract :
Road accidents and traffic jams are common problems being the target of a lot of research works to be resolved in current traffic system. Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) is commonly part of Intelligent Transport System (ITS) which is directly involved in handling these problems and aims to make journey on road comfortable. In this paper, vehicular SMS system (VSS) is proposed based on cellular network to provide VANET services to users through SMS system. It has the potential of being more cost effective solution as compared to VANET but needs further research to resolve its trust and privacy issues.
