Provided are systems and methods for increasing vehicle safety by determining whether a driver can operate a vehicle based on whether the physical status of the driver and the identity of the driver are acceptable. A first set of sensors may determine the physical status of the driver. The first set of sensors may include an electrocardiogram detection component, an alcohol detection component, a body temperature detection component, and a photography component, among others. A second set of sensors may determine the identity of the driver. The second set of sensors may a fingerprint detection component, an electrocardiogram detection component, and a photography component, among others. When it is determined that the physical status of the driver is unacceptable, the method may include activating an automatic driving system.
