The solution will bring down the use of specialized hardware thus helping reduce cost and making implementation faster and easier. We shall use a pattern matching algorithm to compare the drivers’ driving style to predefined patterns depicting rash driving. These patterns will be based on a number of various parameters such as speed of the vehicle‚ radius of turns etc. If the patterns are matched then

states that accounting takes place only for those economic events to which the entity is a party. This principle therefore rules out recognizing a gain based on the appreciated market value of a still-owned asset. The matching principle states that income is calculated by matching a period’s revenues‚ such as the amount of merchandise sold‚ with the expenses (monetary costs) incurred in order to bring about that revenue. The accrual principle defines revenues and expenses as the inflow and outflow
