The goal of the Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety (DADSS) project is, through a step-by-step, data driven process, to develop and test prototypes that may be considered for vehicle integration thereafter.
As technology development progresses and decisions are being made about how to integrate such technology into vehicles, NHTSA needs a better understanding of public preferences with respect to in-vehicle alcohol detection devices. Optimization of technology and public acceptance of it once deployed will depend on the extent to which public attitudes are taken into account during the development process. Thus NHTSA seeks input from drivers to:
 Gauge public perceptions of advanced in-vehicle alcohol detection technology;
 Guide the technology design; and
 Guide a strategy for introduction of this technology
This is a new collection of information for a one-time study, whereby increasing NHTSAÂs total burden hour by 288 burden hours.
