The problem Ambulance Alert System solves

According to Times of India about 146,133 people were killed in road accidents in India in the year 2016. Out of these about 30% of deaths are caused due to delayed ambulance. Another Indian government data shows more than 50% of heart attack cases reach hospital late, which can constitute unavailability of ambulances too but majority of it is due to patients stuck in traffic. Our aim is to send alerts to drivers to make way well before time to avoid traffic jams.

Challenges we ran into

Initially for the hackathon we planned to make this into a website which collects the user's live location. But due to time constraint and partial knowledge we could only make a working python program(which can be implimented on the website anytime)
