SafeRoad Africa
Road safety intelligence & SOS
The challenge
Hazards and incidents were reported informally, so nobody could see which roads were dangerous or reach help quickly.
Incident reporting, driver safety scoring, hazard alerts, emergency SOS and risk analysis to reduce accidents and speed up response.
Our role: Safety platform engineering and analytics
Architecture decisions
SOS path kept independent
The emergency route has its own minimal endpoint and retry logic so it still works when the rest of the app is degraded.
Geospatial hazard clustering
Reports are clustered by location and severity to surface genuine blackspots instead of noise.
Transparent driver scoring
Safety scores are computed from explainable factors, so drivers can see exactly what changed their rating.
System architecture
- 01ClientsReact app with hazard map and one-tap SOS
- 02APIExpress services for reports, alerts and scoring
- 03DomainIncidents, hazards, driver scores, risk analysis
- 04DataGeospatial-indexed incident store
- 05OpsMapping APIs, push alerting, escalation rules
Results
Drivers get warned before a blackspot and reach help faster, while operators get the data to act on repeat risk locations.
