and all other CMV drivers to use a 5/5
sleeper berth split. The Agency denied
the exemption because the applicant
failed to explain how he would likely
achieve a level of safety equivalent to
the current regulatory requirements.
Unlike Matthew Kilmer’s application for
exemption, MFT provided a list of
safety protocols. As noted above, MFT
has operated for 10 years under the
exemption without adverse safety
impacts.
The Agency reviewed MFT’s
application, comments to the docket,
and the company’s safety record
including crashes and inspection data
from April 2020 to December 2024.
Since 2015 when the exemption was
first granted, this exemption has not had
an adverse effect on MFT’s safety
record. FMCSA therefore concludes that
renewing the exemption for another five
years, under the terms and conditions
listed below, will likely maintain a level
of safety that is equivalent to, or greater
than, the level of safety achieved
without the exemption.
VI. Exemption Decision
A. Grant of Renewal of Exemption
This exemption from the
requirements of 49 CFR 395.1(g)(1)(ii)(B)
is effective from April 20, 2025, through
April 20, 2030, 11:59 p.m. local time.

B. Applicability of Exemption
This exemption applies to MFT team
drivers only. When operating under this
exemption, team drivers employed by
MFT are provided a limited exemption
from the sleeper-berth requirements of
49 CFR 395.1(g)(1)(ii)(B) to allow them
to split sleeper-berth time into two
periods totaling at least 10 hours,
provided neither of the two periods is
less than 2 hours in length (an 8/2, 7/
3, 6/4, or 5/5 split). All other provisions
of 49 CFR part 395 continue to apply,
including the calculation provisions in
49 CFR 395.1(g)(1)(iii). The guidance
document dated September 21, 2015,
which was posted to the docket with
Document ID FMCSA–2014–0071–0042,
no longer applies because it was based
on the 2015 HOS regulations that are no
longer in effect.
C. Terms and Conditions
(1) Each week, all MFT transportation
operations will shut down between one
hour prior to sundown on Friday and
one hour after sundown on Saturday,
allowing drivers using the exemption a
minimum 26 hours off-duty period, in
addition to a minimum of two days at
home during the week.
(2) All tractors will be equipped with
speed limiters, which must be used by
drivers operating under the exemption.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:20 Apr 08, 2025
Jkt 265001
(3) Drivers are limited to 10 hours of
driving time, rather than 11 hours,
during the work shift specified in 49
CFR 395.3(a)(1).
(4) MFT will monitor behavior-based
event data from the ELD to enhance
safety measures to reduce the
probability of crashes.
(5) MFT and its drivers must comply
with all other requirements of the
Federal Motor Carrier Safety
Regulations (49 CFR parts 350–399).
(6) MFT drivers must have a copy of
this notice in their possession while
operating under the terms of the
exemption. This notice serves as the
exemption document and must be
presented to law enforcement officials
upon request.
(7) MFT may be investigated to
evaluate compliance with the terms and
conditions of this exemption, in
addition to the FMCSRs.
D. Preemption
In accordance with 49 U.S.C.
31315(d), as implemented by 49 CFR
381.600, during the period this
exemption is in effect, no State shall
enforce any law or regulation that
conflicts with or is inconsistent with
this exemption with respect to a firm or
person operating under the exemption.
States may, but are not required to,
adopt the same exemption with respect
to operations in intrastate commerce.
E. Notification to FMCSA
MFT must notify FMCSA within 5
business days of any accidents (as
defined by 49 CFR 390.5), involving the
operation of any of its CMVs while
utilizing this exemption. The
notification must include the following
information:
(a) Name of the exemption: ‘‘MFT’’
(b) Date of the accident
(c) City or town, and State, in which the
accident occurred, or closest to the
accident scene
(d) Driver’s name and license number
(e) Vehicle number and State license
number
(f) Number of individuals suffering
physical injury
(g) Number of fatalities
(h) The police-reported cause of the
accident
(i) Whether the driver was cited for
violation of any traffic laws, motor
carrier safety regulations
(j) A printout of the driver’s ELD records
for the date of the crash and the
prior seven days.
Reports filed under this provision
shall be emailed to MCPSD@DOT.GOV.
F. Termination
FMCSA does not believe MFT, or the
drivers covered by this exemption, will
PO 00000
Frm 00076
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
experience any deterioration of their
safety record. The exemption will be
rescinded if: (1) MFT or drivers
operating under the exemption fail to
comply with the terms and conditions
of the exemption; (2) the exemption has
resulted in a lower level of safety than
was maintained before it was granted; or
(3) continuation of the exemption would
not be consistent with the goals and
objects of 49 U.S.C. 31136(e) and
31315(b).

Summary of the Collection of
Information: The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
is seeking approval to conduct 11
voluntary information collections as
part of a one-time research study
involving up to 80 licensed drivers of
various ages to examine the
effectiveness of LDW and LKA ADAS
for improving driver response.
Recruitment of study respondents will
be from the area near the testing facility

in Blacksburg, Virginia, and
surrounding areas. The target for the
study is a total of 50 participants;
however, the research team has
provided sufficient additional
recruitment such that the target sample
will be achieved given expected
reductions in respondents due to
ineligibility and attrition. The
respondents will participate in two
separate driving data collection sessions
during the course of the research after
undergoing a series of evaluations for
suitability of inclusion in the study.
Respondents will be asked to
complete a brief questionnaire related to
their previous knowledge of, and
experience with, LDW systems and LKA
systems. Respondents will next perform
a series of controlled driving tests on the
Virginia Smart Roads facilities with one
of the test vehicles that has been
instrumented with a Data Acquisition
System (DAS). The DAS includes video
cameras and sensors that allow for
collecting continuous data that
encompasses driver behavior and
vehicle performance. Each series of
controlled driving tests on the Smart
Roads will last about 2 hours and will
be preceded by a 15-minute
familiarization with the vehicle,
followed by a 30-minute post-driving
questionnaire and debriefing session.
The drivers who complete the first
session will return a different day for a
second driving session in which they
will be instructed to drive a prescribed
route on public roads in Southwest
Virginia. This second driving session
will last approximately 4 hours, with a
15-minute break in the middle of the
session; this will be preceded by a 45minute preparation and followed by a
30-minute post-driving questionnaire
and debriefing. The planned data
collection activities discussed herein
have been approved by an Institutional
Review Board.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: As part of NHTSA’s
mission to save lives, prevent injuries,
and reduce traffic-related health care
and other economic costs, the agency
conducts research as a foundation for
the development of motor vehicle
standards and traffic safety programs.
Lane departure crashes, including
single-vehicle run-off-road crashes, noncollision rollovers, sideswipe crashes,
and head-on crashes between two
vehicles traveling in opposite
directions, account for a large
proportion of fatal and injury crashes on
U.S. roads. LSS, a type of lateral-control
ADAS, predominantly comprise two
complementary technologies: LDW and
LKA systems. LDW detects and alerts
PO 00000
Frm 00077
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
15295
drivers when their vehicle is about to
leave the current travel lane, whereas
LKA redirects the lateral movement of
the vehicle to prevent it from leaving
the current travel lane.
Numerous studies have found that
LSS reduce the likelihood of a crash.
Based on the comparison of multiple
prevention systems and warning-only
systems, studies have suggested that
prevention systems are more effective
than warning-only systems. Crash
situations typically unfold quickly;
thus, a driver’s response to the warning
may be too late to prevent a crash,
particularly when the driver is
distracted, drowsy, or fails to notice the
warning quickly. While studies have
demonstrated the effectiveness of LSS at
reducing the intended crash types and
the potential of LSS to save countless
lives with widespread use, these
systems are unfortunately associated
with a ‘‘nuisance’’ factor resulting from
false or unnecessary alerts. This leads to
system deactivation, with indications
that drivers turn LDW systems off as
much as 50 percent of the time due to
annoying alerts and overly aggressive
steering corrections. Once deactivated,
all potential safety benefits of LSS are
lost, highlighting the importance of
reducing false or unnecessary alerts to
maximize driver acceptance and the
likelihood that the system remains
enabled. LSS, if properly designed,
evaluated, and used, have the potential
to reduce the occurrence of, or at the
very least mitigate the severity of, a
significant number of lane-departure
crashes. NHTSA needs to learn more
about the effectiveness of LSS, the
human factors that affect LDW and LKA
performance, and the system
characteristics that will favor better
acceptance. This data collection has
been designed to evaluate key LSSrelated technologies, with a particular
focus on driver and system
performance, as well as driver
acceptance. The outcomes will provide
a wide variety of stakeholders with
valuable information about LSS design
features to maximize the safety benefits
of these systems and will inform
NHTSA in future activities involving
these systems.
NHTSA will use the information
collected to produce a technical report
containing summary statistics and tables
that will be made available publicly
through the agency website and the
National Transportation Library.
60-Day Notice: A Federal Register
notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting public comments on the
following information collection was
published on September 3, 2024 (89 FR
71777). NHTSA received one public
E:\FR\FM\09APN1.SGM
09APN1
ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
15296
Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 67 / Wednesday, April 9, 2025 / Notices
comment from the Texas Department of
Transportation (TxDOT). The
commenter began with, ‘‘TxDOT agrees
with NHTSA’s conclusion that more
research is required to understand the
effectiveness of lane support systems,
the human factors affecting LDW and
LKA technologies, and the features in
these systems that lead to increased
acceptance and adoption. TxDOT
requested that NHTSA ‘‘consider asking
participants if they received any
specialized training, at the time of a new
vehicle’s purchase, on the use and
operations of LDW and LKA systems.
TxDOT stated its belief that this
information will provide a more
comprehensive view of the efficacy of
these technologies. NHTSA concurs
with this comment and has added a
question to NHTSA Form 1843—
Knowledge Experience Questionnaire to
that effect. While this question has been
added to the collection, NHTSA does
not anticipate a notable increase in the
length of time to complete NHTSA Form
1843 and, therefore, there are no
changes in burden from that which was
published in the 60-day notice.
Affected Public: Respondents to this
collection will be members of the public
recruited from Blacksburg, Virginia, and
surrounding areas. Effort will be made
to recruit equal numbers of adult males
and females, including participants aged
25 to 65 with different levels of
experience owning or driving a vehicle
with LSS. A representative sample is
not necessary to satisfy the objectives of
the study; therefore, a convenience
sample of individuals meeting eligibility
criteria will be sufficient.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
The target for the study is for 50
participants total to complete both
sessions with valid data collected for
each. However, eligibility and attrition
must be accounted for throughout the
individual information collections
included in this request. As previously
stated, there are 11 individual
information collections in this request.
The number of respondents annually for
each collection is as follows:
Recruitment Screener—113; Informed
Consent—28; Vision-Hearing Form—27;
Knowledge Experience Questionnaire—
27; Session 1: Controlled Driving—27;
Session 1: Post-Condition

LKA—11.
Frequency: This is a one-time
information collection.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:20 Apr 08, 2025
Jkt 265001
Estimated Number of Responses: 654.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: The
estimated annual burden for this onetime information collection is 272
annual burden hours (based on a 3-year
approval period). Further details are
provided below. This ICR includes 11
individual information collections
described below.
1. Recruitment Screener
An estimated 113 respondents
annually will answer a Recruitment
Screener over the phone to determine if
they qualify for the study. Participants
will be screened over the phone to
determine eligibility, with recruitment
personnel recording responses on a
paper form using an anonymized
identifier. Respondents are expected to
take an average of 15 minutes to
complete the questionnaire and will
complete this questionnaire once,
resulting in 28 annual burden hours.
2. Informed Consent
Based on an estimate that 25 percent
of those who begin the screening
process will be eligible and interested in
participating in the study, 28
respondents annually will be scheduled
for an appointment to go to the
contractor’s facilities in Blacksburg,
Virginia, for the consenting process and,
subsequently, the full study. The
consenting process includes an
overview of the study, an explanation of
the consent form, and an opportunity
for the potential participants to ask
questions and get clarification. Those
individuals who consent to the study
and enroll will complete the Informed
Consent form and move on to the next
process. This consenting process is
expected to take 30 minutes, resulting in
14 annual burden hours.
3. Vision-Hearing Form
NHTSA anticipates a minimal amount
of attrition following the consenting
process; thus 27 respondents annually
are expected to complete the VisionHearing Form. This collection involves
an experimenter administering a vision
and hearing evaluation to ensure that
respondents meet the basic vision
requirements of driver’s licensure in
Virginia (20/40) and to confirm that they
can hear instructions provided by the
experimenter when looking away. This
evaluation is expected to take 5
minutes, resulting in 2 annual burden
hours.
4. Knowledge Experience Questionnaire
Following the vision and hearing
evaluation, the 27 annual respondents
will be asked to complete a 10-minute
Knowledge Experience Questionnaire
PO 00000
Frm 00078
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
related to their previous knowledge of
and experience with the systems under
evaluation. Completion of this form will
take 10 minutes per respondent and is
to be completed once, resulting in 5
annual burden hours.
5. Session 1: Controlled Driving
To assess preferences regarding LDW
modality and timing under dynamic
scenarios, study participants will
experience a series of controlled driving
tests with the LDW mockup vehicle on
the Smart Roads test track at the
contractor’s facility. Each participant
will drive continuously on closed loops
while experiencing modality and timing
conditions (independent and in
combination, where applicable)
incorporated in the LDW mockup
vehicle, while data are collected by the
DAS. No other traffic will be present on
the part of the Smart Roads in use
during participant sessions. After the
participant performs a few loops to
become familiar with the vehicle and
the test track without instructions to
depart the lane, they will be instructed
to gradually deviate towards one of the
lines until the departure warnings are
triggered. Drivers will then be instructed
to carefully perform a corrective
maneuver back to the center of the lane
after the warning. Not including the
questionnaire elements referenced
below, this driving session is expected
to take 100 minutes, including vehicle
familiarization, drive time, and breaks.
For 27 respondents annually, this
results in 45 annual burden hours.
6. Session 1: Post-Condition
Questionnaire
During the behind-the-wheel session,
drivers will verbally answer questions
administered by the experimenter. This
‘‘post-condition’’ questionnaire, with an
estimated completion time of 5 minutes,
will be administered up to 12 times for
a total time of 60 minutes per
participant. Note that this allotted time
is in addition to the actual driving time.
Administered to 27 respondents
annually, this results in a total of 27
annual burden hours.
7. Session 1: Post-Session Questionnaire
Following completion of the full
driving session, respondents will be
asked to complete a final post-drive
questionnaire, capturing feedback
pertaining to all conditions experienced.
The estimated completion time is 5
minutes. Administered to 27
respondents annually, this results in 2
annual burden hours. At the conclusion
of this first driving session and
questionnaires, participants will receive
E:\FR\FM\09APN1.SGM
09APN1
15297
Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 67 / Wednesday, April 9, 2025 / Notices
instruction to return on another day for
the second session.
To assess driver response to naturally
occurring LDW and LKA actuations, two
independent driving data collection
efforts will be conducted on public
roads in Southwest Virginia (the
community surrounding the VTTI
facility). The drivers who have
completed the controlled driving
sessions will return to the contractor’s
facilities for a second session, during
which they will be assigned to one of
two groups (16 respondents in the first
group and 11 respondents in the second
group) and asked to individually drive
a prescribed route using one of the test
vehicles, experiencing different
modality, activation timing, and
variation of LDW, LKA, and LDW/LKA
conditions while driving as they
normally would. The respondents will
not need to repeat the consent form,
evaluations, or instructional processing
prior to this semi-naturalistic driving
session.
8. Session 2: Naturalistic Driving: LDW
Subset
Each respondent in the first group, 16
respondents annually, will drive a
prescribed route using the LDW mockup
vehicle. Each driving session will be
part of a sub-study that aims to clarify
the effects of the two independent LDW
design variables (modality and
activation timing) on driver
performance safety indicators (e.g.,
frequency of lateral excursions and
unintended departure events, and the
magnitudes of these events). At the
halfway point, a member of the research
team will switch the modality/timing
combination. A remote experimenter
tool will allow the experimenter to
monitor the session and allow
interfacing with the DAS. The total
driving session duration for each
participant will be approximately 4
hours. With orientation to the research
vehicle and prescribed route, along with
a 15-minute break at the halfway point,
the total estimated time to complete this
driving session is approximately 5 hours
and 10 minutes. For 16 respondents
annually, this equates to 83 annual
burden hours.
9. Session 2: Post-Route Questionnaire
LDW
At the halfway point, when the
respondents take their 15-minute break,
they will also complete the ‘‘post-route’’
questionnaire. This is estimated to take
10 minutes but is distinct from their
break time. They will complete this
same questionnaire after completing
their second half of the drive. For 16
respondents annually, this equates to 5
annual burden hours.
10. Session 2: Naturalistic Driving:
LDW/LKA Subset
Each participant from the second
group, 11 respondents annually, will
complete the same prescribed drive but
will use the LDW/LKA factory vehicle
rather than the LDW mockup vehicle.
This experiment will address objective
11. Session 2: Post-Route Questionnaire
LDW/LKA
At the halfway point when
respondents take their 15-minute break,
they will also complete the ‘‘post-route’’
questionnaire. This is estimated to take
10 minutes but is distinct from their
break time. They will complete this
same questionnaire a second time after
completing their second half of the
drive. For 11 respondents annually, this
equates to 4 annual burden hours.
The 11 information collections
described above are summarized in the
following table, showing the number of
annual respondents, frequency of
response, time per response, and
associated burden.

driver performance and subjective
qualitative preferences under four
system activation modes (none, LDW
only, LKA only, and LDW with LKA).
At the halfway point, a member of the
research team will switch the modality/
timing combination. A remote
experimenter tool will allow the
experimenter to monitor the session and
allow interfacing with the DAS. The
total driving session duration for each
participant will be approximately 4
hours. Including orientation to the
research vehicle and prescribed route,
along with a 15-minute break at the
halfway point, the total estimated time
to complete this driving session is
approximately 5 hours and 10 minutes.
For 11 respondents annually, this
equates to 57 annual burden hours.

NHTSA Form 1847--Session 2 Post-Route Questionnaire LDW/LKA.
Type of Request: New information collection.
Type of Review Requested: Regular.
Length of Approval Requested: 3 years from date of approval.
Summary of the Collection of Information: The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is seeking approval to conduct 11
voluntary information collections as part of a one-time research study
involving up to 80 licensed drivers of various ages to examine the
effectiveness of LDW and LKA ADAS for improving driver response.
Recruitment of study respondents will be from the area near the
testing facility in Blacksburg, Virginia, and surrounding areas. The
target for the study is a total of 50 participants; however, the
research team has provided sufficient additional recruitment such that
the target sample will be achieved given expected reductions in
respondents due to ineligibility and attrition. The respondents will
participate in two separate driving data collection sessions during the
course of the research after undergoing a series of evaluations for
suitability of inclusion in the study.
Respondents will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire related
to their previous knowledge of, and experience with, LDW systems and
LKA systems. Respondents will next perform a series of controlled
driving tests on the Virginia Smart Roads facilities with one of the
test vehicles that has been instrumented with a Data Acquisition System
(DAS). The DAS includes video cameras and sensors that allow for
collecting continuous data that encompasses driver behavior and vehicle
performance. Each series of controlled driving tests on the Smart Roads
will last about 2 hours and will be preceded by a 15-minute
familiarization with the vehicle, followed by a 30-minute post-driving
questionnaire and debriefing session. The drivers who complete the
first session will return a different day for a second driving session
in which they will be instructed to drive a prescribed route on public
roads in Southwest Virginia. This second driving session will last
approximately 4 hours, with a 15-minute break in the middle of the
session; this will be preceded by a 45-minute preparation and followed
by a 30-minute post-driving questionnaire and debriefing. The planned
data collection activities discussed herein have been approved by an
Institutional Review Board.
Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: As part of NHTSA's mission to save lives, prevent
injuries, and reduce traffic-related health care and other economic
costs, the agency conducts research as a foundation for the development
of motor vehicle standards and traffic safety programs. Lane departure
crashes, including single-vehicle run-off-road crashes, non-collision
rollovers, sideswipe crashes, and head-on crashes between two vehicles
traveling in opposite directions, account for a large proportion of
fatal and injury crashes on U.S. roads. LSS, a type of lateral-control
ADAS, predominantly comprise two complementary technologies: LDW and
LKA systems. LDW detects and alerts drivers when their vehicle is about
to leave the current travel lane, whereas LKA redirects the lateral
movement of the vehicle to prevent it from leaving the current travel
lane.
Numerous studies have found that LSS reduce the likelihood of a
crash. Based on the comparison of multiple prevention systems and
warning-only systems, studies have suggested that prevention systems
are more effective than warning-only systems. Crash situations
typically unfold quickly; thus, a driver's response to the warning may
be too late to prevent a crash, particularly when the driver is
distracted, drowsy, or fails to notice the warning quickly. While
studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of LSS at reducing the
intended crash types and the potential of LSS to save countless lives
with widespread use, these systems are unfortunately associated with a
``nuisance'' factor resulting from false or unnecessary alerts. This
leads to system deactivation, with indications that drivers turn LDW
systems off as much as 50 percent of the time due to annoying alerts
and overly aggressive steering corrections. Once deactivated, all
potential safety benefits of LSS are lost, highlighting the importance
of reducing false or unnecessary alerts to maximize driver acceptance
and the likelihood that the system remains enabled. LSS, if properly
designed, evaluated, and used, have the potential to reduce the
occurrence of, or at the very least mitigate the severity of, a
significant number of lane-departure crashes. NHTSA needs to learn more
about the effectiveness of LSS, the human factors that affect LDW and
LKA performance, and the system characteristics that will favor better
acceptance. This data collection has been designed to evaluate key LSS-
related technologies, with a particular focus on driver and system
performance, as well as driver acceptance. The outcomes will provide a
wide variety of stakeholders with valuable information about LSS design
features to maximize the safety benefits of these systems and will
inform NHTSA in future activities involving these systems.
NHTSA will use the information collected to produce a technical
report containing summary statistics and tables that will be made
available publicly through the agency website and the National
Transportation Library.
60-Day Notice: A Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting public comments on the following information
collection was published on September 3, 2024 (89 FR 71777). NHTSA
received one public
[[Page 15296]]
comment from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The
commenter began with, ``TxDOT agrees with NHTSA's conclusion that more
research is required to understand the effectiveness of lane support
systems, the human factors affecting LDW and LKA technologies, and the
features in these systems that lead to increased acceptance and
adoption. TxDOT requested that NHTSA ``consider asking participants if
they received any specialized training, at the time of a new vehicle's
purchase, on the use and operations of LDW and LKA systems. TxDOT
stated its belief that this information will provide a more
comprehensive view of the efficacy of these technologies. NHTSA concurs
with this comment and has added a question to NHTSA Form 1843--
Knowledge Experience Questionnaire to that effect. While this question
has been added to the collection, NHTSA does not anticipate a notable
increase in the length of time to complete NHTSA Form 1843 and,
therefore, there are no changes in burden from that which was published
in the 60-day notice.
Affected Public: Respondents to this collection will be members of
the public recruited from Blacksburg, Virginia, and surrounding areas.
Effort will be made to recruit equal numbers of adult males and
females, including participants aged 25 to 65 with different levels of
experience owning or driving a vehicle with LSS. A representative
sample is not necessary to satisfy the objectives of the study;
therefore, a convenience sample of individuals meeting eligibility
criteria will be sufficient.
Estimated Number of Respondents: The target for the study is for 50
participants total to complete both sessions with valid data collected
for each. However, eligibility and attrition must be accounted for
throughout the individual information collections included in this
request. As previously stated, there are 11 individual information
collections in this request. The number of respondents annually for
each collection is as follows: Recruitment Screener--113; Informed
Consent--28; Vision-Hearing Form--27; Knowledge Experience
Questionnaire--27; Session 1: Controlled Driving--27; Session 1: Post-
Condition Questionnaire--27; Session 1: Post-Session Questionnaire--27;
Session 2: Naturalistic Driving: LDW Subset--16; Session 2: Post-Route
Questionnaire LDW--16; Session 2: Naturalistic Driving: LDW/LKA
Subset--11; Session 2: Post-Route Questionnaire LDW/LKA--11.
Frequency: This is a one-time information collection.
Estimated Number of Responses: 654.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours: The estimated annual burden for this
one-time information collection is 272 annual burden hours (based on a
3-year approval period). Further details are provided below. This ICR
includes 11 individual information collections described below.
1. Recruitment Screener
An estimated 113 respondents annually will answer a Recruitment
Screener over the phone to determine if they qualify for the study.
Participants will be screened over the phone to determine eligibility,
with recruitment personnel recording responses on a paper form using an
anonymized identifier. Respondents are expected to take an average of
15 minutes to complete the questionnaire and will complete this
questionnaire once, resulting in 28 annual burden hours.
2. Informed Consent
Based on an estimate that 25 percent of those who begin the
screening process will be eligible and interested in participating in
the study, 28 respondents annually will be scheduled for an appointment
to go to the contractor's facilities in Blacksburg, Virginia, for the
consenting process and, subsequently, the full study. The consenting
process includes an overview of the study, an explanation of the
consent form, and an opportunity for the potential participants to ask
questions and get clarification. Those individuals who consent to the
study and enroll will complete the Informed Consent form and move on to
the next process. This consenting process is expected to take 30
minutes, resulting in 14 annual burden hours.
3. Vision-Hearing Form
NHTSA anticipates a minimal amount of attrition following the
consenting process; thus 27 respondents annually are expected to
complete the Vision-Hearing Form. This collection involves an
experimenter administering a vision and hearing evaluation to ensure
that respondents meet the basic vision requirements of driver's
licensure in Virginia (20/40) and to confirm that they can hear
instructions provided by the experimenter when looking away. This
evaluation is expected to take 5 minutes, resulting in 2 annual burden
hours.
4. Knowledge Experience Questionnaire
Following the vision and hearing evaluation, the 27 annual
respondents will be asked to complete a 10-minute Knowledge Experience
Questionnaire related to their previous knowledge of and experience
with the systems under evaluation. Completion of this form will take 10
minutes per respondent and is to be completed once, resulting in 5
annual burden hours.
5. Session 1: Controlled Driving
To assess preferences regarding LDW modality and timing under
dynamic scenarios, study participants will experience a series of
controlled driving tests with the LDW mockup vehicle on the Smart Roads
test track at the contractor's facility. Each participant will drive
continuously on closed loops while experiencing modality and timing
conditions (independent and in combination, where applicable)
incorporated in the LDW mockup vehicle, while data are collected by the
DAS. No other traffic will be present on the part of the Smart Roads in
use during participant sessions. After the participant performs a few
loops to become familiar with the vehicle and the test track without
instructions to depart the lane, they will be instructed to gradually
deviate towards one of the lines until the departure warnings are
triggered. Drivers will then be instructed to carefully perform a
corrective maneuver back to the center of the lane after the warning.
Not including the questionnaire elements referenced below, this driving
session is expected to take 100 minutes, including vehicle
familiarization, drive time, and breaks. For 27 respondents annually,
this results in 45 annual burden hours.
6. Session 1: Post-Condition Questionnaire
During the behind-the-wheel session, drivers will verbally answer
questions administered by the experimenter. This ``post-condition''
questionnaire, with an estimated completion time of 5 minutes, will be
administered up to 12 times for a total time of 60 minutes per
participant. Note that this allotted time is in addition to the actual
driving time. Administered to 27 respondents annually, this results in
a total of 27 annual burden hours.
7. Session 1: Post-Session Questionnaire
Following completion of the full driving session, respondents will
be asked to complete a final post-drive questionnaire, capturing
feedback pertaining to all conditions experienced. The estimated
completion time is 5 minutes. Administered to 27 respondents annually,
this results in 2 annual burden hours. At the conclusion of this first
driving session and questionnaires, participants will receive
[[Page 15297]]
instruction to return on another day for the second session.
To assess driver response to naturally occurring LDW and LKA
actuations, two independent driving data collection efforts will be
conducted on public roads in Southwest Virginia (the community
surrounding the VTTI facility). The drivers who have completed the
controlled driving sessions will return to the contractor's facilities
for a second session, during which they will be assigned to one of two
groups (16 respondents in the first group and 11 respondents in the
second group) and asked to individually drive a prescribed route using
one of the test vehicles, experiencing different modality, activation
timing, and variation of LDW, LKA, and LDW/LKA conditions while driving
as they normally would. The respondents will not need to repeat the
consent form, evaluations, or instructional processing prior to this
semi-naturalistic driving session.
8. Session 2: Naturalistic Driving: LDW Subset
Each respondent in the first group, 16 respondents annually, will
drive a prescribed route using the LDW mockup vehicle. Each driving
session will be part of a sub-study that aims to clarify the effects of
the two independent LDW design variables (modality and activation
timing) on driver performance safety indicators (e.g., frequency of
lateral excursions and unintended departure events, and the magnitudes
of these events). At the halfway point, a member of the research team
will switch the modality/timing combination. A remote experimenter tool
will allow the experimenter to monitor the session and allow
interfacing with the DAS. The total driving session duration for each
participant will be approximately 4 hours. With orientation to the
research vehicle and prescribed route, along with a 15-minute break at
the halfway point, the total estimated time to complete this driving
session is approximately 5 hours and 10 minutes. For 16 respondents
annually, this equates to 83 annual burden hours.
9. Session 2: Post-Route Questionnaire LDW
At the halfway point, when the respondents take their 15-minute
break, they will also complete the ``post-route'' questionnaire. This
is estimated to take 10 minutes but is distinct from their break time.
They will complete this same questionnaire after completing their
second half of the drive. For 16 respondents annually, this equates to
5 annual burden hours.
10. Session 2: Naturalistic Driving: LDW/LKA Subset
Each participant from the second group, 11 respondents annually,
will complete the same prescribed drive but will use the LDW/LKA
factory vehicle rather than the LDW mockup vehicle. This experiment
will address objective driver performance and subjective qualitative
preferences under four system activation modes (none, LDW only, LKA
only, and LDW with LKA). At the halfway point, a member of the research
team will switch the modality/timing combination. A remote experimenter
tool will allow the experimenter to monitor the session and allow
interfacing with the DAS. The total driving session duration for each
participant will be approximately 4 hours. Including orientation to the
research vehicle and prescribed route, along with a 15-minute break at
the halfway point, the total estimated time to complete this driving
session is approximately 5 hours and 10 minutes. For 11 respondents
annually, this equates to 57 annual burden hours.
11. Session 2: Post-Route Questionnaire LDW/LKA
At the halfway point when respondents take their 15-minute break,
they will also complete the ``post-route'' questionnaire. This is
estimated to take 10 minutes but is distinct from their break time.
They will complete this same questionnaire a second time after
completing their second half of the drive. For 11 respondents annually,
this equates to 4 annual burden hours.
The 11 information collections described above are summarized in
the following table, showing the number of annual respondents,
