SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
before an agency submits a proposed
collection of information to OMB for
approval, it must publish a document in
the Federal Register providing a 60-day
comment period and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information. The OMB has
promulgated regulations describing
what must be included in such a
SUMMARY:
PO 00000

document. Under OMB’s regulations (at
5 CFR 1320.8(d)), an agency must ask
for public comment on the following:
(I) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(ii) The accuracy of the agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(iii) How to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(iv) How to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses.
In compliance with these
requirements, NHTSA asks public
comment on the following proposed
collection of information:
The National Survey of Pedestrian and
Bicyclist Attitudes, Knowledge, and
Behaviors
Type of Request—New information
collection requirement.
OMB Clearance Number—None.
Form Number—NHTSA Form 1148.
Requested Expiration Date of
Approval—3 years from date of
approval.
Summary of the Collection of
Information—The National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
proposes to collect information from the
public to ascertain the scope and
magnitude of bicycle and pedestrian
activity and the public’s behavior and
attitudes regarding bicycling and
walking. A national telephone survey
will be administered to 9,000 randomly
selected respondents drawn from all 50
States and the District of Columbia. The
national survey will be preceded by a
pretest administered to 15 respondents.
The survey will ask about the
characteristics of bicycling and walking
trips, conspicuity, community design
for bicycling and walking, bicycle
helmet use, and general opinions about
bicycling and walking. Interview length
will average 20 minutes.
In conducting the proposed telephone
interviews, the interviewers would use
computer-assisted telephone
interviewing to reduce interview length
and minimize recording errors. No
personally identifiable information will
be collected during the telephone
interviews.

Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information—NHTSA was established
to reduce the number of deaths, injuries,
and economic losses resulting from
motor vehicle crashes on the Nation’s
highways. As part of this statutory
mandate, NHTSA is authorized to
conduct research as a foundation for the
development of motor vehicle standards
and traffic safety programs.
Pedestrian safety and bicyclist safety
are two of several behavioral areas for
which NHTSA has developed
comprehensive programs to meet its
injury reduction goals. The major
components of pedestrian safety
programs are education, enforcement,
and outreach. Those three approaches
are also applied to bicyclist safety
programs, with legislative efforts added
to the mix.
NHTSA encourages bicycling as an
alternate mode of transportation to
motor vehicle travel. Moreover,
increasing safe bicycling and walking
behavior is promoted as a positive
contributor to the quality of life. But an
increase in these behaviors often means
an increase in exposure to potential risk
of collision with motor vehicles,
underscoring the need to have in place
aggressive pedestrian and bicyclist
safety programs to keep injuries on a
downward trajectory. This in turn
requires periodic data collection to
assess whether the programs continue to
be responsive to the public’s
information needs, behavioral
intentions, attitudes, physical
environment, and other factors that
contribute to safety while walking or
bicycling.
A survey of pedestrian and bicyclist
attitudes and behavior was conducted in
2002. That survey provided program
planners and community leaders with
detailed information on walking and
bicycling behavior, level of support for
facilities assisting those activities, and
awareness of safety issues. But the
information is in need of updating,
especially given recent programs and
initiatives to increase walking and
bicycling. This project will provide that
update by conducting the 2012 National
Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian
Attitudes and Behavior.
NHTSA will use the findings from
this proposed collection of information
to assist States, localities, and
communities in developing and refining
bicycling and walking safety programs.
Description of the Likely Respondents
(Including Estimated Number, and
Proposed Frequency of Response to the
Collection of Information)—Under this
proposed effort, the Contractor would
conduct 15 pretest telephone interviews
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:06 Jun 10, 2011
Jkt 223001
and 9,000 national survey telephone
interviews for a total of 9,015
interviews. The telephone interviews
will be conducted with respondents age
16 and older, with over-sampling of
respondents 16 through 39. Interview
length will average 20 minutes.
Interviews would be conducted with
respondents at residential phone
numbers selected through random digit
dialing. Interviews would be conducted
both with respondents using landline
phones and respondents using cell
phones. Businesses are ineligible for the
sample and would not be interviewed.
All respondents will be administered
the survey one time only.
Estimate of the Total Annual
Reporting and Record Keeping Burden
Resulting from the Collection of
Information—NHTSA estimates that
respondents would require an average of
20 minutes to complete the telephone
interviews or a total of 3,005 hours for
the 9,015 respondents. All interviewing
would occur during a two-to-three
month period during 2012. Thus the
annual reporting burden would be the
entire 3,005 hours. The respondents
would not incur any reporting cost from
the information collection. The
respondents also would not incur any
record keeping burden or record
keeping cost from the information
collection.
