CDC/HRSA Advisory Committee on HIV, Viral Hepatitis and STD Prevention and Treatment, 27310 [2014-10894]

Download as PDF 27310 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 92 / Tuesday, May 13, 2014 / Notices promulgated by the city regulators or company-wide directives designed to impact road safety by a city taxi fleet. Another use of data collected for this study would be to serve as a baseline measure for a future evaluation of safety initiatives implemented at the municipal level. Finally, contextual data on motor vehicle crashes is not completely captured by current surveillance methods. Such a survey would provide insight into the occurrence of crashes involving taxicabs. Furthermore, data on driving behaviors in the context of safety climate and role overload can only be obtained directly from taxicab drivers and will provide the perspective needed for designing effective safety interventions. CDC requests OMB approval for 2 years to collect survey data using the Taxi Driver Survey. CDC anticipates the survey data collection will be conducted in Houston over several months in Summer/Fall of 2014 and over several months in FY 2015 for Los Angeles. The study objectives will be addressed using a single survey designed to capture prevalence and frequency of adverse motor vehicle events and injuries, road safety data elements and workplace violence data elements. Taxicab drivers will be approached and invited to participate in two cities, 550 in Houston and 550 in Los Angeles, it is anticipated 50 taxicab drivers in each city will not participate in the survey. Survey data will be collected from taxicab drivers in two cities, 500 in Houston and 500 in Los Angeles once during a 30 minute in- person interview, while taxicab drivers are waiting in the airport lot to pick up fares. The survey questions on road safety behaviors are from validated questionnaires used by researchers in Australia. The survey was administered to nine taxicab drivers in Houston to test for clarity and comprehensibility by taxicab drivers. The survey took 30 minutes or less to complete. The information collected will describe road safety and workplace violence experiences in the past 12 months. Collecting survey data on 500 respondents in each city results in an estimated burden of 275 hours per city. The total estimated burden is 550 hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time. ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Type of respondents Form name Taxicab Drivers in Houston ............................
