Abstract - As the number of motorcyclists in our country
There are many causes for this, including the ambulance's delayed arrival and the lack of witnesses at the scene who could have notified the family or given the victim first aid. This is an everyday occurrence, thus the concept of coming up with a solution to it led to the idea of informing people about accidents as soon as feasible and in a timely manner.
rises, so do the number of traffic accidents and fatalities. The majority of these accidents are the result of drunk driving and a failure to wear a helmet. The majority of nations now require their residents to wear helmets while riding bikes and to never ride while intoxicated, but despite this, the laws are still broken. Drive Protection and Accident Detection Smart Helmet was developed in an effort to address this issue as engineers using the use of mechatronics. It is made up of an intelligent system that is built into the helmet and the vehicle. The helmet device makes sure the motorcyclist is wearing a helmet and is not drinking during the trip. If the aforementioned requirement is not met, it interacts with the vehicle unit to turn off the motorcycle's ignition system. Vehicle unit checks and intimates’ accident and SMS notifies of accident using geometric coordinates. Geometric coordinates can be used to locate the injured cyclist using a basic GPS monitoring software. The primary goal of the suggested idea is to offer a safe and affordable smart helmet. The smart helmet was designed using a Wi-Fi enabled processor and an integrated network of sensors for the engine control system, accident alert system, and alcohol detection. When it comes to the driver's safety, the suggested system is quite beneficial.
After all, timing is essential, therefore if everything is finished on time, we can at least save half of the lives lost in bike accidents. The purpose of this project is to provide information about the rider, including whether or not he or she has worn a helmet, whether or not they have consumed alcohol, and whether or not they have had an accident. This will be done by integrating IoT and using a GSM module to send information about the accident's location to the emergency contacts' mobile numbers.
2. OBJETIVE The main goal of the project is to create a low-cost, intelligent helmet that is built to prevent the bike from starting without it. This device offers protection and safety for riders against traffic accidents and can also determine whether the rider has ingested alcohol. The system is also built such that, in the event of an accident, the GSM system will find the cyclist globally and send an immediate message informing the emergency contacts of the accident's location.

1. INTRODUCTION The idea behind this project's development was to benefit society in some way. The number of two-wheeler accidents is rising daily, which is tragically taking many lives. According to a survey conducted in India, 698 incidents involving motorcycles occur annually.
3. LITERATURE REVIEW All motorcycle riders in Malaysia are required by law to wear helmets, whether they are travelling a short distance or a long distance, thanks to the SMART HELMET system. The system will connect from the helmet-mounted transmitter to the motorcycle-mounted receiver using XBee technology. To ensure that the rider is not cheating on themselves, many different sorts of switches are being used, including temperature heat switches, clipped switches, and signal switches. The signal won't be delivered to the motorbike's receiver if the system detects that the user or riders are not wearing their helmets properly (clipped), which will prevent the motorcycle from starting and preventing the rider from moving the vehicle.
There are a variety of potential causes, including improper driving skills, bike fitness, fast biking, carrying large loads, using a phone while driving, driving while intoxicated, etc. Sometimes the wounded party may not have been at fault for the collision; rather, it may have been the fault of the other rider. Nevertheless, the drivers who were involved in the collisions will be the ones who suffer. If accidents are one problem, failing to receive treatment in a timely manner is another. According to a report, there are 698 incidents per year in India, and only around half of the injured people received prompt medical attention.
