SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 2008,
the National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) entered into a
Cooperative Agreement with the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:07 Nov 10, 2020
Jkt 253001
Automotive Coalition for Traffic Safety
(ACTS)—representing the majority of
automobile manufacturers—to assess
and develop alcohol detection
technologies that prevent the operation
of a vehicle when the driver’s blood
alcohol concentration (BAC) exceeds the
legal limit. This collaborative research
partnership is known as the Driver
Alcohol Detection System for Safety
(DADSS) program. Over the years, the
DADSS program made progressive
improvements in the development of
two in-vehicle technologies that target
measuring breath or blood alcohol levels
and could help prevent alcoholimpaired drivers from operating their
vehicles: A breath-based and a touchbased system. As the DADSS technology
progressed, NHTSA also became aware
of some market-based driver monitoring
systems, some of which may also play
a role in addressing safety risks
associated with impaired driving.
NHTSA is interested in better
understanding the state of technologies
in impaired driving detection and
mitigation, particularly those targeting
alcohol-impaired driving.
Request for Information: This notice
requests information to inform NHTSA
about the capabilities, limitations, and
maturity of currently available
technologies or those under advanced
stages of development that target
impaired driving. The Joint Explanatory
Statement accompanying the Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020,
Public Law 116–94 (2020), requires
NHTSA to facilitate the sharing of this
information and the implementation
and integration of impaired driving
technology across the automotive
industry. NHTSA plans to conduct
further research on such technologies.
To ensure a comprehensive review of
these technologies, NHTSA requests
interested parties to submit information
to the Agency on related technologies
that are being researched, developed, or
marketed. More specifically, NHTSA
seeks information about technologies
that can detect degrees of driver
impairment through a range of
approaches including (1) technologies
that can monitor driver action, activity,
behavior, or responses, such as vehicle
movements during lane keeping, erratic
control, or sudden maneuvers; (2)
technologies that can directly monitor
driver impairment (e.g., breath, touchbased detection through skin); (3)
technologies that can monitor a driver’s
physical characteristics, such as eye
tracking or other measures of
impairment; and (4) technologies or
sensors that aim direct measurement of
a driver’s physiological indicators that
are already linked to forms of impaired
PO 00000
Frm 00114
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
driving (e.g., BAC level for alcoholimpaired driving).
NHTSA is interested in information
about product specifications;
impairment measurement metrics,
methods, and systems; impairment
classification approaches and
capabilities; availability of test results
and data that support system
capabilities and limitations; advanced
sensors; and other technologies that
could be used in a vehicle to detect
impaired drivers.
Input is also requested about whether
and how systems have been validated to
date, including human factors issues
and user acceptance of proposed
approaches. Further, NHTSA requests
information on the range of active
intervention these technologies are
targeted to support in vehicles based on
the type and level of impairment
estimated, or measured, by the system
with respect to the system’s confidence
in such assessment.
Responses most useful to NHTSA
would include specific information
about the product capabilities and
limitations, the state of its development,
its availability and/or current uses.
Examples of useful information include
vendor contact information; information
related to product’s marketed
capabilities; a description of the
approach the technology uses to detect,
estimate, or measure driver impairment;
product specifications, including
physical dimensions, accuracy,
tolerance limits, performance
characteristics such as temperature
limitations, vehicle integration
feasibility, and part-life in the
automotive environment; closest
Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of
the technology based on best practices
described in the General Accounting
Office Technology Readiness
Assessment Guide (https://
www.gao.gov/assets/710/703694.pdf);
any publicly shareable information
related to the cost ranges for the unit, its
installation, as well as lifetime
maintenance; any data related to studies
that targeted usability and user
acceptance; known technology defeat
strategies users may employ; and
impairment detection and impairment
differentiation capabilities (alcoholimpaired, drug-impaired, distracted,
drowsy, etc.), including false-positive
and false-negative detection rates.
Additionally, NHTSA would like to
know how existing technologies have
been evaluated in laboratory or field
tests or in operational deployments and
how positive impairment data was
utilized in those studies.
NHTSA encourages commenters to
provide information in common file
