Abstract – Our project deals with concept to prevent the
program of Arduino is completely based on relay logic. The sensors are used as the input to the controller.
accidents on travelling through foot board in public transport especially on Buses, In regular days during the peak hours the maximum people travel through public transports, during that time the capacity of vehicle will exceed more than 100% by standing in foot board. This causes major accidents and ends in life loss due to lack of grip in holding the handlebar of the vehicle, breakdown of entire steps of the vehicle due to over load.

1. INTRODUCTION Now a day’s the usage of public transports are more than the individual transport due to increase of hike in fuel. Widely used public transport for lower distance of travel is buses which are most commonly accessed by the peoples to reach destinations at lower ticket cost.

4. FLOW CHART
During the peak hours in normal days from morning 08:00 am to 10:00 am and the evening 05:00 pm to 09:00 pm the passenger ratio will be more than the rated capacity of the bus. Normally the passenger capacity will be like 70 passengers (45 sitting passengers and 25 standing passengers) but during the peak hours the passenger ratio will be minimum 30% more than the rated passenger count because of students and working employees. At the same time the increase in percentage of passenger ratio will be occupying the footboard to stand and travel which is the cause of road accidents. Fig -2: Flow chart
Apart from overcrowded the current youngsters who tries to do stunts are travelling only in footboard which is also major cause of accident.
This flow chart shows the connection of sensors and the actuators to the controller.
We are here to propose a system which is to prevent such accidents on travelling in footboard.
5.
In this project we design a system to prevent the accident on travelling in the footboard. We use two types of sensors to identify the presence of person in the footboard Sensor – 1 is a type of optical sensor to sense the presence of the person in footboard Sensor – 2 is type
2. METHODOLOGY We use a basic automation structure with the help of open source controller - arduino and few sensors. The
