Today the rate of vehicle theft is very high. For this reason, vehicle security systems have become one of the main requirements for vehicle users. As the frequency of accidents increases due to traffic jams, the safety of the vehicle is of paramount importance to the vehicle owner. The cost of the anti-theft systems is also expensive; hence an effective alternative is needed. This paper aims to build a vehicle safety system by using various small-size, low-power, and low-cost devices compared with the vehicle price. The proposed system helps users by controlling the vehicle’s speed, as well as opening and closing the vehicle doors and the driver’s window and controlling the fuel pump, in addition to transferring photos and videos from inside the vehicle through a simple application. An anti-theft system based on a Wi-Fi modem and Raspberry Pi 4 Model has been implemented and tested in a modern vehicle where the vehicle’s speed was controlled via Raspberry Pi 4B Kit with MICRO SERVO SG90 and potentiometer. Relays were used to manage the vehicle doors, driver’s window, and fuel pump. Live photos will be taken from the camera installed inside the vehicle. The proposed system is controlled by creating a driver application with various options using Node-Red (Nick O’Leary and Dave Conway-Jones-Rapid Event Developer), which is controlled on the driver’s mobile phone.
