Abstract— Purpose of this Project is to Develop of an
Accident Prevention Road Safety for hill Station that uses the
Arduino Uno as a main Function of design. The Principle
objective of this Project was to design a Safety Road control
by Arduino Uno and IR Sensors. This project deals to develop
a prototype of Safety Road that function automatically Work
by using Arduino and IR Sensor Besides that, the interfacing
program also had been developed for the integration part. The

I. INTRODUCTION
The Accident Prevention Road Safety Model and Automatic
Street light have been designed to avoid accidents on the hill
Station. Because one way roads and sharp end are found at
hill station. This is most likely to be an accident prone area so
we have designed a Safety model to Avoid Accidents in hilly
region. Where we have used traffic lights for signal which
will guide us to the right and safe directions and we have
designed Automatic Street lights which will automatically
turns light ON after sunset and to make our project
environment friendly we will connect all the circuits with
solar panel.

converter. "Uno" means one in Italian and is named to mark
the upcoming release of Arduino 1.0. The Uno and version1.0
will be the reference versions of Arduino, moving forward.
The Uno is the latest in a series of USB Arduino boards, and
the reference model for the Arduino platform.

II. SOFTWARE
Arduino IDE is used to develop the prototype of the software.
Arduino IDE is available at official website of Arduino as
shown in figure 6. This is open source. So any one can
develop anything according to their choose.

Fig. 3 LED
Made popular by their efficiency, range of color, and
long lifespan, LED lights are ideal for numerous applications
including night lighting, art lighting, and outdoor lighting.
These lights are also commonly used in electronics and
automotive industries, and for signage, along with many other
uses.
D. LDR (Light Dependent Resistance)
Fig. 6: Official website of Arduino
The LDR Sensor Module is used to detect the presence of
light / measuring the intensity of light as shown in figure 4. A. Working Principle of Accident prevention road safety
The output of the module goes high in the presence of light We have to add the two sensors in our project because what
and it becomes low in the absence of light. The sensitivity of happens in hilly areas .there is one way road to the hilly areas
the signal detection can be adjusted using potentiometer. and rounding .where the chances of getting an accident are
very high because nothing is seen on the other side .that’s why
we have installed sensors and lights (Red light, Green light,
Buzzer) here as shown in figure 7.Green light on means that
there is no one in front of these sensors or Corner, then the
vehicle can go comfortably .If a car goes from one corner to
another corner the sensor will be activated and the red light
and buzzer will be turned on at the another corner, so that the
vehicle will go on carefully or stop. If a car goes from another
corner to one corner the sensor will be activated and red light
and buzzer will be turned on at other corner, so that the
vehicle can go on carefully or stop. If the vehicles are coming
from both corners the sensor will be activated and red light
and buzzer will be turned on at the both sided in this case a
corner vehicle will have to go back so that another vehicle
Fig. 4: LDR can pass easily and avoid accidents.

E. Buzzer
A buzzer is an audio signaling device, which may be
mechanical, electromechanical, or piezoelectric as shown in
figure 5. Typical uses of buzzer include alarm device, timer,
and confirmation of user input such as a mouse click or
keystroke.

pinMode(red, OUTPUT); The purpose of this project is to decrease the number of
pinMode(green, OUTPUT); accidents in curve roads. This is done by alerting the driver
pinMode(buzzer,OUTPUT); by means of buzzer when vehicle comes from the other side
pinMode ( red1 , OUTPUT ); of the curve. The vehicle is detected by the help of IR sensor
pinMode ( green1 , OUTPUT ); which is interfaced to the microcontroller Arduino UNO. By
pinMode(buzzer1,OUTPUT); this we can save thousands of lives in the curve roads.
