The purpose of the collection is to
gather demographic information about the drivers and learn whether
they trust crash avoidance technology or believe that it will
improve their safety. The survey data will be used with
naturalistic data from the driver’s vehicle to see if a driver’s
experiences with crash avoidance technology affects their opinions
(i.e. if drivers who experience more alerts have different opinions
of the technology). The collection will be conducted in two stages.
Participants will complete a consent process, (1) Demographic
Questionnaire, and (2) Initial CAS Technology Questionnaire at the
start of the study. After three months, participants will be asked

compensation. Participation is voluntary, and participants may
elect to stop participation at any time and forego remaining
compensation (participants will be partially compensated for any
collection activities completed).
