Braking (AEB) to prevent fatalities,
injuries, and property damage in crashes
involving heavy vehicles. Previous
studies have investigated crash problem
size, economic cost, and preliminary
safety benefits concerning these
systems. The underlying methods of
these studies have included test track
evaluations, objective test procedures,
technology field demonstrations, and
‘‘naturalistic’’ studies. As both of the
major AEB system suppliers are
scheduled to release new products in
the second half of 2016, NHTSA is
interested in the real world performance
of these new systems, which are
designed to address the shortcomings of
the previous generation of AEB systems.
These systems have been designed to
offer improved threat detection and new
features such as stationary object
braking. Additionally, a new product
called Detroit AssuranceTM was released
in 2015 for Freightliner trucks by Detroit
Diesel Corporation. This system shares
many features with the OnGuard and
Wingman® products including
advanced emergency braking (AEB),
forward collision warnings (FCW), and
adaptive cruise control (ACC).
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: The collection of
information consists of: (1) A
demographic questionnaire, (2) initial
CAS technology questionnaires, and (3)
post study CAS technology
questionnaire.
The information to be collected will
be used as follows:
• Demographic questionnaire will be
used to obtain demographic information
so that analysis may account for
participants from various groups (e.g.,
age gender, driving experience, and
experience with CAS technology).
• Initial CAS technology
questionnaires will be used to get
information about drivers’ beliefs and
attitude towards the CAS technology
installed on the commercial vehicle
they use for their job. These
questionnaires will assess perceived
usability of the systems in terms of
acceptance and satisfaction, as well as
willingness to have this technology in
their vehicle. Each driver will complete
this survey at the start of his or her data
collection.
• Post study CAS technology
questionnaires will be used to get
information about drivers’ beliefs and
attitude towards the CAS technology
installed on the commercial vehicle
they use for their job. These
questionnaires will also be used to
assess perceived distraction potential of
the systems in terms. Each driver will
complete a post study questionnaire
once, after the completion of his or her
data collection. The post study survey
will gauge how drivers’ attitudes and
preferences may have changed over the
course of participation.
• Each participating driver will have
a data acquisition system installed in
their vehicle for three months while
they perform their normal work duties.
This system will collect video of the
driver and forward roadway, telemetry
and vehicle network data related to
driving, and activations of the vehicle’s
CAS.
Respondents: Commercial vehicle
drivers who are assigned a single,
specific commercial vehicle that is
equipped with the eligible technologies.
Trucking fleets (approximately 7–10)
will be contacted first to see if they have
trucks equipped with the technologies
and would be willing to have their
drivers participate in the study.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
175, after compensating for potential
drop-outs
Estimated Number of Responses: Full
participation in the study will include
3 responses for a total of 92 questions
per participant, plus a consent form that
will be reviewed prior to participation.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 110
minutes per respondent, including
consent (204 hours total).
Estimated Frequency: Twice at the
start of participation (demographic and
initial CAS technology surveys), once at
the completion of participation
approximately 3 months later.

to try to find potential in-vehicle
approaches to address the problem of
alcohol-impaired driving. Members of

System for Safety (DADSS) Program, is
exploring the feasibility, potential
benefits of, and public policy challenges
associated with a more widespread use
of non-invasive, in-vehicle technology
to prevent alcohol-impaired driving.
NHTSA and ACTS outlined a research
program to assess the state of detection
technologies that are capable of
measuring blood alcohol concentration
(BAC) or Breath Alcohol Concentration
(BrAC) and to support the creation and
testing of prototypes and subsequent
hardware that could be installed in
vehicles. As part of the research
program, NHTSA and ACTS will build
research vehicles that include both a
breath- and touch-based sensor in order
to evaluate the potential
implementation and integration of both
breath- and touch-based sensor
technologies.
This collection, which shall
commence on September 1, 2017,
pertains to a field operational test (FOT)
of both the breath- and touch-based
research vehicles developed under this
program. A key to the establishment of
effective, unobtrusive in-vehicle alcohol
detection systems is an understanding
of real-world use of the technology. This
FOT will allow NHTSA and ACTS to
evaluate the functionality of these
research vehicles under varying
operating conditions by having study
participants drive DADSS research
vehicles through some preset routes.
The research vehicles are the first
vehicles of this kind, and will be used
to gather data regarding sensor validity
and reliability. This study will provide
a greater understanding of drivers using
the technology under varying
environmental conditions. Data
collected from the DADSS FOT will be
used to further refine the DADSS
Performance Specifications and evaluate
system performance; specifically cases
when the system may detect alcohol
when none is present.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: The collection of
information consists of: (1) An
eligibility interview (2) multi-day FOT
of DADSS sensors, and (3) post-test day
questionnaire.
The information to be collected will
be used for the following purposes:
• Eligibility interview will be used to
obtain self-reported eligibility
information, including health, driving/
criminal record, and drinking behavior,
that participants must meet to qualify
for participation in this study (e.g., must
hold valid driver’s license). Participants
will also be asked to provide the height
and weight.

Frm 00125
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
• The DADSS FOT will be used to
establish effective non-invasive, invehicle alcohol detection systems
through an understanding of the realworld use of the technology. Breath-and
touch-based sensor data along with
video data (for in-vehicle validation of
sensor data) collected from the DADSS
FOT will be used to further refine the
DADSS Performance Specifications and
evaluate subsystem/sensor performance.
This study will provide a greater
understanding of drivers using the
technology under varying
environmental conditions.
• Post-test day questionnaire(s) will
be used to get information about any
technical difficulties or issues drivers
may have had with the DADSS–FOT
vehicles at the end of each test day.
• Participants must:
Æ Be at least 21 years of age
Æ Hold a valid U.S. or Canadian driver’s
license
