 ABSTRACT

Now a day's we hear news about accidents on Highways very frequently and in most of the cases
main reason of accident is over speed. Although all highways do have signboards indicating
maximum speed limit for the sake of driver’s safety, but still people does not obey highway speed
limit. The project mentioned here is “Speed checker for Highways”. This project is designed and
developed by taking into consideration the problem mentioned above. LDR sensors are used in this
project. These sensors detect the vehicle speed. Condition is that, the two sensors should be installed
at a distance of 100 meters apart from one another. 7-segment cathode display is connected to this
project. This display will show the vehicle speed. It will also intimate user if vehicle speed crossed
the maximum speed limit or not. The project also has a Buzzer. Over speed condition is indicated by
turning on the Buzzer. Many analysts and policy makers have argued that building more highways
is an Ineffective response to congestion: specifically, that it is infeasible to add enough highways.
Capacity in large urban areas to provide much relief. But this making of highways is just showing
the path for accidents because of no speed limits in these highways. In order to overcome this
problem we have designed equipment called as Speed checker for highways. The proposed system
will check on rash driving by calculating the speed of a vehicle using the time taken to travel
between the two set points at a fixed distance. A set point consists of a pair of sensors comprising of
a Laser and an LDR, each of which are installed on either sides of the road. The speed limit is set by
the police who use the system depending upon the traffic at the very location. The time taken by the
vehicle to travel from one set point to the other is calculated by control circuit. Based on that time it
then calculates the speed and displays that on seven segment displays. Moreover if the vehicle
crosses the speed limit, a buzzer sounds alerting the police. This concept can be extended in future
by integrating a camera with the system which could capture the image of the number plate of the
vehicle to sends that to the traffic authorities.
 INTRODUCTION

Many analysts and policy makers have argued that building more highways is an Ineffective
response to congestion: specifically, that it is infeasible to add enough highways Capacity in
large urban areas to provide much relief. But this only adds to the increased number of
accidents because of no speed limits in these highways. In order to overcome this problem
we have designed equipment called as “SPEED CHECKER FORHIGHWAYS”.
This project investigates differentiated design standards as a source of capacity additions that
are more affordable. Here the average speed and high speed with which the vehicles are
moving are considered. The implications of differing accident rates are also considered. All
these considerations were taken and the design of this equipment is done. This design helps
to find the vehicles which are moving with high speed in spite of a speed limit board is
presenting that highway. The cops then can take necessary action on that culprit. The design
mainly uses a timer, counter, logic gates and 7-segment display. Using these components the
speed checker on highways is designed and observed that it is working more efficiently than
expected.
 LITERATURE REVIEW

Rash driving is the cause of many road accidents all over the world. The traffic population
has increased considerably in India as there is no means to control or monitor the speed of
vehicles running on roads. This system proves highly effective in detection of over speed
driving. It is not at all necessary that such accidents are results of driving under the influence
of alcohol as even a person who hasn’t consumed alcohol can drive in a reckless manner. To
overcome this problem and decrease death rate due to accidents, introduction of new and
innovative speed enforcement technology is necessary.
Nowadays, rash driving causes a serious danger to the driver as well as general public.
Despite the fact that rash driving is a serious problem, its current methods of detection by
patrol officers lack sufficiency. First of all, given the huge mileage of driveways, the number
of patrol officers is far from enough to observe and analyze every driver's behavior. Second,
the guidelines of rash driving patterns are only descriptive and visual observations cannot
specify the details of driving at night or in poor weather. In the present system, to detect rash
driving police has to use a handheld radar gun and aim at the vehicle to record its speed. If
the speed of the vehicle exceeds the speed limit, the nearest police station is informed to stop
the speeding vehicle. This is an ineffective process as after detecting one has to inform the
same and a lot of time is wasted. With the number of vehicles increasing day by day, this
method cannot be trusted with the lives of people. After keeping all these considerations in
mind, we have designed a model of highway over-speeding vehicle detecting circuit to
control rash driving by the use of different electronic devices such as timer, counter, logic
gates, seven segment display and several other components. Though the proposed model can
also be designed by using microcontroller but due to its high complexity and high cost, use
of timer is preferable over microcontroller.
A wide range of sensor technologies are also available, such as inductive loops, video,
ultrasonic detectors, microwave detectors and radar based detectors. The history of speed
enforcement is replete with examples of new enforcement techniques; subsequent negative
public reaction and resistance; and finally, assuming survival through legal challenges to
these techniques. The advantage of our proposed over speed driving warning system is that it
will come handy for the highway traffic police as it will not only provide a digital display in
accordance with a vehicle’s speed but will also sound an alarm if the vehicle exceeds the
permissible speed for the highway. The proposed system will check on rash driving by
calculating the speed of a vehicle using the time taken to travel between the two set points at
a fixed distance. A setpoint consists of a pair of sensors comprising of an LASER and an
LDRs, each of which are installed on either sides of the road. The speed limit is set by the
police who use the system depending upon the traffic at the very location. The time taken by
the vehicle to travel from one set point to the other is calculated by control circuit. Based on
that time, it then calculates the speed and displays that on seven segment displays. Moreover
if the vehicle crosses the speed limit, a buzzer sounds alerting the police. This concept can be
extended in future by integrating a camera with the system which could capture the image of
the number plate of the vehicle to sends that to the traffic authorities.
