Title: National Automotive Sampling
System (NASS).
OMB Number: 2127–0021.
Type of Request: Continuation.
Abstract: The collection of crash data
that support the establishment and
enforcement of motor vehicle
regulations that reduce the severity of
injury and property damage caused by
motor vehicle crashes is authorized
under the National Traffic and Motor
Vehicle Safety Act of 1966 (Pub. L. 89–
563, Title 1, Sec. 106, 108, and 112).
The National Automotive Sampling
System (NASS) Crashworthiness Data
System (CDS) of the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration
investigates high severity crashes. Once
a crash has been selected for
investigation, researchers locate, visit,
measure, and photograph the crash
scene; locate, inspect, and photograph
vehicles; conduct a telephone or
personal interview with the involved
individuals or surrogate; and obtain and
record injury information received from
various medical data sources. NASS
CDS data are used to describe and
analyze circumstances, mechanisms,
and consequences of high severity

of the functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; the accuracy of
the Departments estimate of the burden
of the proposed information collection;
ways to enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be

burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

comments.
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
FMCSA announces its plan to submit
the Information Collection Request (ICR)

work scheduling, and compensation.
This information is needed in many
different types of analyses conducted by
the FMCSA and would benefit the
agency in understanding the impacts of
proposed rules and the improvement of
its safety programs. On December 12,
2008, FMCSA published a Federal
Register notice allowing for a 60-day
comment period on the ICR. One
comment was received.
DATES: Please send your comments by
July 2, 2009. OMB must receive your
comments by this date in order to act
quickly on the ICR.
ADDRESSES: All comments should
reference Federal Docket Management
System (FDMS) Docket Number
FMCSA–2008–0035. Interested persons
are invited to submit written comments
on the proposed information collection
to the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget. Comments
should be addressed to the attention of
the Desk Officer, Department of
Transportation/Federal Motor Carrier
Safety Administration, and sent via
electronic mail to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Annual Commercial Motor
Vehicle Driver Survey: Work and

OMB Control Number: 2126–XXXX.
Type of Request: New information

Respondents: Commercial motor
vehicle drivers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
576 commercial motor vehicle drivers.
Estimated Time per Response: 15
minutes per response.

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 144
hours [576 respondents × 15 minutes/60
minutes per response = 144].
Background: The Federal Motor
Carrier Safety Administration seeks to
understand the commercial motor
vehicle driving population. Driverrelated factors are an important
consideration in CMV crashes, but there
is no comprehensive nationwide source
of information describing the
population of drivers operating CMVs in
the United States (U.S.). Estimates of the
number of commercial drivers and
particular subsets of drivers (e.g., local,
short-haul, and long-haul) are needed
and would benefit FMCSA in assessing
the impacts of proposed rules and
improvements needed in its safety
programs. In particular, information on
driver work history, work schedule, and
compensation is needed in many
different types of analyses conducted by
FMCSA.
Driver work history addresses how
long a CMV driver has been working in
the industry, his/her level of experience,
and his/her type of experience. These
items include questions regarding driver
tenure with his/her current employer
and the number of past employers to
provide information regarding the driver
turnover rate. The agency would also
collect information under these items
about driver training to understand how
drivers learned to operate their CMVs
and the amount of training that is
ongoing in the industry. The driver
work schedule item examines the issue
of how much drivers work and the
activities in which they are engaged
when they work (e.g., driving time,
loading time, waiting time). FMCSA is
interested in understanding how
drivers’ work schedules are tracked
(e.g., with paper log books or Electronic
On-Board Recorders (EOBRs)). Finally,
driver compensation collects
information on how much drivers earn
and how they are paid (e.g., salary, by
hour, or by mile). This data will allow
FMCSA to estimate an average wage
rate, which can be used to understand
the cost imposed on drivers by current
and proposed regulations.
The goals of this survey are to acquire
general demographic information
regarding the commercial motor vehicle
driving population, and specific
information on driver work history,
work scheduling, and compensation.
Data for this project would be collected
via driver interviews. The results of the
information collection would be
summarized in a report developed for
the FMCSA and made available to the
public.
