In, on, and at are called prepositions of place. They show where a person or thing is.

IN → means inside something
Example: I am in the room.
ON → means on the surface of something
Example: The book is on the table.
AT → means at a specific place or point
Example: I am at the bus stop.
When talking about vehicles, IN and ON have a special pattern.
IN → inside a small/private vehicle
ON → public transport / larger vehicles
