Abstract

A first device may receive, from a second device associated with an emergency motor vehicle (EMV), EMV-tracking information and a communication that the EMV is in emergency response mode and may determine, based on the EMV-tracking information, that the EMV is approaching an intersection. The first device may receive, from a third device associated with a user vehicle, user-tracking information. The first device may determine, based on the user-tracking information, that the user vehicle is approaching the intersection. The first device may determine, based on the EMV-tracking information and the user-tracking information, whether the EMV is predicted to collide with the user vehicle. The first device may provide, to the second device and based on the determination of whether the EMV is predicted to collide with the user vehicle, a first notification including information regarding safety of the EMV proceeding through the intersection.
