Abstract: Research has shown that
drivers 75 and over have a crash rate
nearly double that of drivers between
the ages of 25 and 65. In addition to
increased crash rates, older drivers are
also more likely to be killed in
automobile crashes when compared to
younger age groups. Some research
showed that drivers aged 75 to 79 were
3.5 times more likely to be killed in an
automobile crash than drivers 30 to 65
years of age. This ratio jumped to 9.5
after age 80. Factors such as declining
cognitive and motor skills may help
explain these older driver crash
statistics. Some older drivers may
attempt to offset any functional declines
by adopting compensatory or selfregulatory behaviors (e.g., slowing
down, braking earlier, limiting
conditions or times of day in which they
drive, and/or voluntarily giving up
driving).
This research effort is focused on
determining how much older drivers
self-regulate their driving through
changes in behaviors or by reducing
exposure. The project involves an initial
questionnaire collecting information
from licensed drivers about their age,
driver license status, driving habits,
vehicle type and age, and the extent to
which they self-limit their driving
exposure. The project plans to recruit a
total of 60 participants, 20 of whom are
60–69, 20 who are 70–79, and 20 who
are 80+ years of age. Staff will attempt
to recruit equal numbers of males and
females in each age group and to
distribute the ages across each interval.
Qualifying participants will have a
tracking device installed in the vehicle
for approximately 30 days. The device
will record all trips made by the
participant. At the end of the 30-day
tracking period, each participant will be
asked to take a battery of standard
clinical functional measures and
complete an on-road driving assessment
administered by a certified driving
rehabilitation specialist. Researchers
will examine the driving behaviors of
participants based on age group and
other covariates collected during the
initial questionnaire and assessments.
The results of this project will assist
NHTSA in determining the relative
extent to which older drivers appear to
be aware of their cognitive and motor
skill deterioration, and whether their
perception of declining ability was
affecting driving behaviors and
exposure.
Affected Public: Participants will
include 60 licensed drivers who drive a
minimum of 3 trips per week, 20 of

Comments are invited 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 Department’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
information collection;
(iii) ways to enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(iv) ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
A comment to OMB is most effective
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication of this notice.
