Popis: The primary cause for the rise in accidents is because of vehicle overloading, drunk driving. The overloading is either because of single mandrel or combination of tractor-trailer arrangement. It causes the problem to the proprietor, the driver and the authorities by allowing an increase in the number of accidents and damages to the road and public property. If the difficulty of overcapacity is not controlled, this burden is transferred to the road user; in terms of charges for the fuel expenses, vehicles toll fees, and fine by RTO. In this project, the weight or load of the vehicle is measured with the load cell that is placed under the chassis. Measured data is sent to the cloud with the help of Server. With the developed mobile app the information about the vehicle is monitored by the owner. Controlling is done through the ignition circuit used to turn off the engine. Therefore, the result shows that a surplus load can be monitored and controlled.
