Vehicle overloading presents critical challenges to infrastructure maintenance and traffic safety. Current static weighing systems suffer from operational inefficiencies, prompting the development of an intelligent real-time monitoring solution. This research introduces an IoT-based overload detection system utilizing precision load cells and edge processing for instantaneous weight analysis. The system addresses three key consequences of overloading: compromised vehicle stability, accelerated mechanical wear (chassis, suspension, steering), and regulatory non-compliance. Implementation results demonstrate 92.3% detection accuracy with automated alerts via integrated displays and remote notifications. The solution significantly improves upon traditional methods by enabling proactive load management during cargo operations, simultaneously enhancing safety, compliance, and operational efficiency in commercial transport.
