In compliance with these requirements, NHTSA asks for public comments on the following proposed collections of information: Title: Crash Investigation Sampling System (CISS). Type of Request: Collection of motor vehicle crash data. OMB Control Number: None. Affected Public: Passenger Motor Vehicle Operators. 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 Highway Traffic Safety Administration has been investigating motor vehicle traffic crashes and collecting crash data through its National Automotive Sampling System (NASS) Crashworthiness Data System (NASS–CDS) and Special Crash Investigation (SCI) programs. The NASS was designed in the 1970’s to collect data from the originally planned 75 data collection sites. Due to demographic changes, the crash population has changed in the country. At the same time, the data needs of the transportation community have increased and significantly changed over the last three decades. For example, the primary focus of the original NASS design was to enhance crashworthiness by providing detailed information about crush damage, restraint system performance and injury mechanisms. In recent years, however, the transportation community has been increasingly more interested in adding data elements related to what happens before a crash and related crash avoidance safety countermeasures. The scope of traffic safety studies has also been expanding. More data is needed from crashes which are not currently included in NASS–CDS, such as those involving large trucks, motorcycles, and pedestrians. Recognizing the importance as well as the limitations of the current NASS system, NHTSA is undertaking a modernization effort to upgrade our data systems by improving the information technology infrastructure, updating the data we collect and reexamining the sample sites. The goal of this overall modernization effort is to develop a new crash data system that meets current and future data needs. Several data acquisitions systems will be designed to VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:00 May 09, 2014 Jkt 232001 collect record-based information and investigation-based information. The redesigned investigation-based acquisition process will focus on detailed investigation of passenger vehicle crashes and will be referred to as the Crash Investigation Sampling System (CISS). For the investigation-based acquisition process, once a crash has been selected for investigation, crash technicians 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. These data are used to describe and analyze circumstances, mechanisms, and consequences of high severity motor vehicle crashes in the United States. The collection of interview data aids in this effort. Estimated Annual Burden: 5,605 hours. Number of respondents: 9,450. Terry T.
