摘　　要：Potholes are practically present on all roads in Mali. Malian drivers seek to locate potholes on the road when driving. And during night trips in Mali, it is very difficult to locate potholes on the road, which most often leads to fatal accidents. The objective of this article is to design an intelligent system for detecting and locating potholes and speed bumps in Mali. For pothole detection, an ultrasonic sensor was used with an Arduino microcontroller. GPS was used to locate the location of potholes and GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) was used to transmit the location data of potholes. Detecting potholes helps reduce the number of traffic accidents in Mali and their locations will allow local and government structures to quickly repair the road. This project has enabled an improvement in human comfort in the existing system, so that the driver can be fully attentive and reassured when driving in Mali.Potholes are practically present on all roads in Mali.
