This paper is carried out to design and develop a footrest or the footboard for the pillion passenger. This footboard is designed especially for moped pillion passengers and children. The possibility of injury to the children’s is high in this case during these accidents. In India many parents use the vehicle for sending and fetching their children to school every day. Accidents in two-wheeler vehicles can be fatal. The reason which increases the risk of acidents is people forgetting to lift up the side stand. Also it is very common for the pillion rider to forget to unlock the footrest before taking his seat and trying to do that while the vehicle is in motion is a risky affair as it disturbs the balance of the vehicle. If the pillion doesn’t use the footrest the chances of accidents get increased due to unbalancing of the vehicle. The main objective of this paper is countering these problems. Footrest is very important part in mopeds as it helps to balance the vehicle during while the pillion passenger is also travelling on the vehicle. Mechanically operated mechanism which will do the job of locking and unlocking of footrest This is mechanical link based paper which works on 4 bar chain mechanism which also include the cam profile for locking and opening of the footrest and the clutch wire which is used to engage and disengage the footrest. This paper is developed for safety of the pillion passenger on moped vehicles and safety of children’s as the children’s are vulnerable, To reduce or minimize human effort for opening the footboard, To reduce this risk and decrease this percentage of the accidents. And this paper is expected to reduce the risk of injury during riding the vehicles
