In present day, most of the automobile manufacturers depend on active safety systems to prevent collisions because collisions and accidents increase day by day in automobiles. Research statistics reported that 20% of collision occurs due to driver’s fault in the event of driving. It also points out that the causes of fatality rate in vehicles are not only due to fault of the vehicles. The causes of accidents are mainly due to drivers faults in automobile such as health-related issues which are the foremost reason for the accidents. In this study, the proposed system is used to analyze the condition of the driver in the event of health issues while driving tends to warn the driver. The sensor is mounted in the steering wheel for sensing the pulse of the driver during driving. The driver positioning of hands or palm in steering wheel is sensed by the pulse sensor fitted on steering wheel and at the time of abnormality in driver’s pulse rate. The sensor alerts the driver and co-passenger by displaying warning signal in dashboard. The research is carried out especially for the taxi drivers prolong time and for the low-cost vehicles to prevent the fatality rate, injury and damage to the vehicle.
