This invention is an improvement to the universal brake system (UBS) with adjustable wheel traction system (WTS). It adds a smart wheel that operate as a standalone adjustable wheel traction system with no connections to a vehicle's ABS brake system. The smartphone integrate with the wheel traction system to provide the following features: 360-degree collision avoidance, 360-degree parking guidance, 360-degree vehicle security and emergency calling. The smart wheel can also integrate with the UBS to obtain wheel lock features. The smart wheel utilizes four radially spaced spikes separated by 90 degrees that operate individually via linear actuators. Each smart wheel has a wireless remote terminal unit embedded in each wheel that measures the angular velocity of each wheel with one wheel serving as a master remote terminal unit that monitors the speed of each wheel to determine when slip or skidding occurs and when to extends wheel spikes.
