1. SHRP 2 Naturalistic Driving Study [Presenter’s Organization] [Presenter’s Name] [Presenter’s Title] Accelerating solutions for highway safety, renewal, reliability, and capacity

2. SHRP 2 SHRP 2 was authorized by Congress in the 2005 highway legislation $170 million, 7 years (2006-2013) Four Research Focus Areas: SafetyReliability Renewal Capacity

3. Why is Highway Safety Important?

4. The SHRP 2 Naturalistic Driving Study Will collect driving data from 3,100 people driving their own vehicles, going about their daily routines for either one or two years Data will be used for decades to come by researchers seeking to improve highway and driving safety The study needs more volunteer drivers, and that is why we are here today.

5. What is a Naturalistic Driving Study? Install inconspicuous cameras and sensors on people’s own vehicles Participants drive normally for an extended period SHRP 2 is the largest, most diverse, most ambitious study of this type – in the world!

6. Why do a Naturalistic Driving Study? Provides a unique view into the circumstances surrounding a crash or other safety event –More accurate and useful than police reports Can compare these events with ordinary driving data –To determine crash risk for different driver, vehicle, and environmental factors

7. Why is the SHRP 2 NDS Special? Size (3,100 drivers) Duration (two years) Geographic extent Includes roadway data Long-term access to data for ongoing research

8. Participants (You?) Men and women in 7 age groups: 3,100 participants in all Some participate for 1 year, some for 2 years Minor Teen (16-17)Younger Older Driver (51-65) Adult Teen (18-20)Middle Older Driver (66-75) Young Adult (21-35)Older Older Driver (76+) Middle Adult (36-50)

9. Accelerometer Data –Braking –Accelerating –Swerving GPS Forward Radar Cabin alcohol indicator Incident push button (opens audio channel for 30 seconds) Video (4 camera views) Turn signals Vehicle network data –Accelerator –Brake pedal activation –Speed –Horn –Seat Belt Information –Airbag deployment What Data will be Collected?

10. 10 DAS System Components

11. What Would I Have to Do? Take a screening questionnaire to see if you (and your vehicle) are eligible –Phone or online options Schedule a [four] hour time period: –Consent process –Get the vehicle instrumented –Undergo an assessment (vision, driving history, sleep habits, etc.) Drive (for one or two years) Get system removed, answer a few more questionnaires

12. Head unit (as seen from passenger seat) DAS (mounted under passenger shelf) Front radar

13. Driver Data/Assessment Demographics Driving history Driving knowledge Driving behavior Medical conditions Sleep habits Risk perception and risky behavior Sensation seeking Vision, strength, mobility

14. Payment There is compensation in the amount of [$300 or $500] per year –[$300 or $500] total for one year participants –[$600 or $1000] total for two year participants Paid via [check or direct deposit] –At 3 points in time for one year participants –At 5 points in time for two year participants [Also entered into a drawing for $1000 for every six months enrolled in the study –Odds of winning are 1 in 150]

15. We Take Your Privacy Seriously Legal protections: –We have obtained a Certificate of Confidentiality from the Department of Health and Human Services Technical and logistical protections: –Identifying data and information highly protected Contact information Face video Audio (if incident button was pressed) GPS coordinates of home, work, school locations Must be viewed in a secure data enclave by qualified researchers who have received approval to use the data
