BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present disclosure. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed disclosure, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art. [0003] Existing literature comprises of disclosures pertaining to anti-theft mechanisms and notification facilities to car owners. Vehicle towing reporting systems also exist currently but none of them disclose systems that can transmit real-time location of the towed vehicle along with details of the towing vehicle. Hence there is need in the art to develop a system that can track and notify vehicle towing event to the registered user or owner of the vehicle. [0004] The proposed system discloses a vehicle towing notification system that can detect displacement of a parked vehicle and record details of towing vehicle. These details facilitate in detecting cases of false towing reports and thefts. The proposed system also provides real-time location information of the towed vehicle to the registered user that helps in locating the towing services or local authorities responsible for releasing the towed vehicle. Unlike existing notification systems that send notifications directly to the user devices through automated phone calls and text messages, the proposed system facilitates in sending notifications even when the phone number of the user changes, by utilizing global navigation satellite services network for establishing communication between the proposed system and the remotely located user device.
