SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

OMB Control Number: To be issued at
time of approval.
Title: National Survey of Principal
Drivers of Vehicles with a Rear Seat Belt
Reminder System
Type of Request: New collection.
Abstract: NHTSA seeks to collect data
from those who drive vehicles equipped
with a Rear Seat Belt Reminder System
(SBRS), which are currently available on
only a few vehicle models sold in the
U.S., the test group, and draw
comparisons to those who drive similar
vehicles without a rear SBRS (the
comparison group). To this end, NHTSA
will collect basic demographic
information from both groups and
information on their passengers seat belt
usage habits, as well as the
effectiveness, preferences and
acceptance of the rear SBRS. NHTSA
will use the findings from this proposed
collection of information in support of
an analysis of the potential benefits of
requiring a rear SBRS in new vehicles
sold in the United States.

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. NHTSA has decided not to
use a Spanish-language translation or
bilingual interviewers based on the
prevalence of the use of English in the
United States.
Respondents: Telephone interviews
will be administered to a national
sample of people 18 and older who are
primary drivers of vehicles with a
specific make and model.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,500 survey respondents.
Estimated Time per Response: 15
minutes per interview.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: 625
hours.
Frequency of Collection: The survey
will be administered a single time.
Send comments regarding
the burden estimate, including
suggestions for reducing the burden, to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, 725 17th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20503, Attention: Desk
Officer for Department of
Transportation, National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration, or by
email at [email protected],
or fax: 202–395–5806.
Comments Are Invited On: Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the Department of
Transportation, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
the accuracy of the Department’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
information collection; ways to enhance
the quality, utility and clarity of the
information to be collected; and ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
the use of automated collection
techniques or other forms of information
