Estimate of the Total Annual
Reporting and Record Keeping Burden
Resulting from the Collection of
Information—NHTSA estimates 30
minutes for each interview for an
estimated an annual burden of 100
hours and a total burden of 300 hours
over a three year period. Based on
median per capita income, the
maximum total input cost, if all
respondents were interviewed on the
job, is estimated as follows: $22.01 per
hour × 100 interviewing hours = $2,201
per year and $6,603 total over a three
year period. There are no record keeping
or reporting costs to respondents. All
responses are provided spontaneously.
Each respondent only participates once
in the data collection. Thus there is no
preparation of data required or expected
of respondents. Respondents do not
incur: (a) Capital and startup costs, or
(b) operation, maintenance, and
purchase costs for interviewing

OMB
Control Number: 2127–New.
Title: Demonstration Tests of Different
High Visibility Enforcement Models.
Form No.: NHTSA Forms 1121 and
1122.
Type of Review: Regular.
Respondents: Telephone interviews
will be administered to residents in
each of five selected communities who
are drivers, age 18 and older, have
access to a residential landline and/or a
personal cell phone, and have
consumed alcohol in the past year. Inperson interviews will be conducted in
each of the five selected communities at
bars or other establishments serving
alcohol with patrons age 21 and older.
Estimated Number of Respondents: A
maximum of 18,000 telephone
interviews and 6,000 in-person
interviews with patrons of bars or other
establishments serving alcohol.
Estimated Time per Response: 10
minutes per telephone interview and 10
minutes per interview with patrons of
bars or other establishments serving
alcohol.
Total Estimated Annual Burden
Hours: 4,000 hours.
Frequency of Collection: There will be
a maximum of three survey waves at
each of the five community sites. A
telephone survey and a survey of
patrons at bars or other establishments
serving alcohol will be conducted
during each survey wave, with each
respondent interviewed once. The
drinking establishment interview will
be split such that questions will be
asked of each respondent both during
entry and exit from the establishment.
Abstract: Highly visible enforcement
(HVE) has had the strongest support in
the research literature for effectiveness
in reducing alcohol-impaired driving.
The unknown at this time is the
relationship of the amount of HVE to
perceived likelihood within a
community of an alcohol-impaired
driver being stopped by law
enforcement. In particular, does the
perceived likelihood increase as the
amount of HVE increases? And is the
optimum effect on awareness and
perceived likelihood achieved through
an integrated program where HVE is
integrated into regular law enforcement

operations? NHTSA proposes to answer
those questions by selecting community
sites engaging in different levels of HVE
activity during a one-year period, and
measuring community awareness of
those enforcement programs and the
perceived likelihood of an alcoholimpaired driver being stopped by law
enforcement.
Data collection to assess program
awareness and perceptions of
enforcement will be of two forms.
Telephone surveys will be conducted in
each community, with each survey
wave composed of 1,200 completed
interviews with drivers age 18 and older
who have consumed alcohol in the past
year. The second form of data collection
will be in-person interviews with
patrons at bars or other establishments
serving alcohol. The intent here is to
collect information on program
awareness and perceived likelihood of
an alcohol-impaired driver being
stopped by law enforcement from a
population with a heavier concentration
of individuals at-risk of driving at illegal
blood alcohol concentrations (BACs)
than one would find in a communitywide telephone survey. The drinking
establishment surveys will be
conducted during the same times of the
year as the telephone surveys. Four
hundred bar patrons will be interviewed
per community per survey wave, with a
maximum of three survey waves.
Respondents will be asked a few
questions both upon entry and exit from
the establishment. Breath samples will
also be taken. The breath test results
will not be available on-site but will be
downloaded later.
In conducting the telephone
interviews, the interviewers would use
computer-assisted telephone
interviewing to reduce interview length
and minimize recording errors. No
personal information will be collected
that would allow any respondent to be
identified. The data collection at
drinking establishments would be
anonymous; no personal information
that would allow anyone to identify
respondents will be collected.

the burden estimate, including
suggestions for reducing the burden, to
