The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) proposes to conduct an information
collection to evaluate the effectiveness of high-visibility
enforcement (HVE) demonstration programs in deterring
alcohol-impaired motorcycle riding. The HVE demonstration programs
are expected to occur during the 2012 motorcycle riding season.
NHTSA is requesting approval to conduct intercept surveys at sites
where motorcycle riders congregate, in up to four program locations
and three comparison locations before and after impaired riding
demonstration programs, for the purpose of evaluating the
demonstration programs. NHTSA will administer short in-person
interviews to motorcycle riders in the program and comparison
locations.

This is a new information
collection that will be used to evaluate a new NHTSA demonstration
project. The new information collection will add 1,167 burden hours
