Owning to this, there has been an increase in the number of two wheelers especially on Indian roads which has led to increasing number of accidents and fatality. Also lately there has been an increase in the pollution levels which has led to global warming. Keeping in mind the above problems, an integrated system was designed which will ensure the safety of riders as well as the environment. The integrated design consists of an automatic stand side retrieval, a smart helmet and a pollution sensing device. The components are integrated in such a way that the engine of the two-wheeler will start only when the helmet is worn. As soon as the helmet is worn and the engine is started, the side stand will be retrieved automatically. The pollution sensing device will start sensing the gases leaving the exhaust and as soon as the levels go above the limiting value of polluting gases, a warning beep will ring intimating that the two-wheeler is going above the pollution norms. Index Terms—Two wheeler safety systems, integrated system, automatic side stand retrieval, smart helmet, pollution sensing device, PUC device. I. INTRODUCTION In the modern world, automobile takes a great part in the development since it plays one of a major key in daily life. Two-wheelers play a very important role because it saves the time of the traveler by reaching the target place faster. Two-wheelers, the mode of transport most Indians use, continues to be the most vulnerable to accidents. The latest data released by the home ministry has revealed that 21% of the road death victims in 2015 in the country were riding two-wheelers. Estimates suggest that over 60% of the country's motor vehicles are two-wheelers. Many surveys across the country have shown that the motorcycles are more prone to accidents than other vehicles. Of the major traffic rule that people fail to follow is wearing a proper helmet. The alarming increase in mortality and morbidity owing to road traffic accidents has been a matter of great concern globally. The majority (77%) of the victims in India were in the age group 18-44 years. Accident rate among males (83%) was higher than that among females (17%). Five percent of the victims succumbed to injuries, of which 45 died on the spot. Geared vehicles (81%) were more commonly involved than those without gears. The highest number of accidents was seen during 6-10 pm. There are considerable morbidity and mortality due to two wheelers road traffic accidents. Among the fatalities, majority died on the spot. One of the most important safety rules to be followed while riding a motorcycle is wearing a helmet. And it is necessary for both the riders to wear helmets as in the case of an accident the driver, as well as the pillion is at equal risks of injury. Thus, there is no reason to think that only the driver needs protection. Of the 1,453 two-wheelers riders who died in road accidents in the city between January 1, 2013 and June 28, 2015, 1,434 were not wearing a helmet. The speed of the vehicle cannot be controlled in the situation of an accident. But safety factor can be increased to save lives. Wearing a helmet while participating in activities like bicycle riding or motorcycle riding can drastically lessen the chance of suffering a serious brain injury. All too often, people taking part in these activities are seriously injured because they chose not to wear a helmet. Motorcycle helmets and bike helmets lessen the impact of hard surfaces that hit the head during a bike or motorcycle accident. Helmets are designed to compress when struck, which decreases the severity of the impact by absorbing and dispersing force. Another simple thing people forget is uplifting of the side stand of the motorcycle while riding. 36% accidents in India are caused due to this mistake. The main reason for this is the rush that people make while riding a motorcycle. While the two-wheelers are concerned accidents occurs due to riding the vehicle at a high speed, ignoring to wear helmets, not maintaining the speed limit and forgetting to lift the side stand. These are the major source of accidents. Forgetting to lift the side stand causes large no. accidents in rural areas as well as partly in urban areas too. Because all the other source of accidents has preventive measure, but accidents due to side stand do not have a proper preventive measure.
