Abstract: 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 to complete (3) Final CAS Technology Questionnaire at the end of participation. Responding to the collection is required to receive 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).
