Online Motor Vehicle Licensing System Using RBAC Mechanism

Abstract

Motor vehicle administration is a composite process and revolves around the management and the control of motor licensing.
Motor vehicle licensing is the payment of a fee for the use of motor vehicles on public roads. Motor vehicle licensing in Nigeria
began over 100 years ago starting from the colonial administration and the records then were manually kept which did not help in
raising the efficiency of the general automotive services. The current process of motor vehicle licensing is being operated manually and due to this procedure, numerous problems are been encountered. This study seeks to develop a software that links
all the procedures of the motor vehicle licensing system in motor license authority in the manual system of motor vehicle
registration and introduces a better system which is the computerized system that will contribute to providing solutions to the
problems in the manual system. This work was designed to aid the framework for a client-server distributed database system for
licensing and registration of automobiles in Nigeria online. The system was implemented using PHP scripting language, HTML,
MySQL Server, and Macromedia Dreamweaver. This study highly recommends that the motor vehicle licensing office should set
up a computer-based system and more research done to perfect and make it more useful.
