SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), before an agency submits a proposed
collection of information to OMB for approval, it must publish a
document in the Federal Register providing a 60-day comment period and
otherwise consult with members of the public and affected agencies
concerning each proposed collection of information. The OMB has
promulgated regulations describing what must be included in such a
document. Under OMB's regulations (at 5 CFR 1320. 8(d)), an agency must
ask for public comment 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 agency's estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (iii) how to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected;
and (iv) how to minimize the burden of the collection of information on
those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses. In compliance with these requirements, NHTSA
asks for public comment on the following proposed collection of
information for which the agency is seeking approval from OMB:
Title: Motorcycle Rider Segmentation Study
OMB Control Number/Type: New.
Form Number(s): NHTSA Form 1560, NHTSA Form 1561, NHTSA Form 1562,
NHTSA Form 1563, NHTSA Form 1564, NHTSA Form 1565, NHTSA Form 1566,
NHTSA Form 1565, and NHTSA Form 1568.
Type of Information Collection Request: New collection.
Type of Review Requested: Regular.
Requested Expiration Date of Approval: Three years from date of
approval.
Summary of the Collection of Information: Title 23, United States
Code, Chapter 4, Section 403 gives the Secretary authorization to use
funds appropriated to carry out this section to conduct research and
development activities, including demonstration projects and the
collection and analysis of highway and motor vehicle safety data and
related information with respect to all aspects of highway and traffic
safety systems and conditions relating to vehicle, highway, driver,
passenger, motorcyclist, bicyclist, and pedestrian characteristics;
accident causation and investigations; and human behavioral factors and
their effect on highway and traffic safety, including impaired driving.
NHTSA is seeking approval to collect information through web-based
surveys and intercept surveys (data will be entered into an electronic
tablet) from motorcycle riders (the person operating the motorcycle)
and passengers (a person seated on, but not operating, the motorcycle)
in five defined risk-taking segments (males who ride while impaired,
males and females who ride without using personal protective equipment,
males who speed when they ride, males who stopped riding for a period
of time and are returning to riding, and females who are passengers on
motorcycles). These five segments are identified in detail in Table 1.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The purpose of this effort is to study these five segments of the
motorcycle rider/passenger population to better understand each
segment's unique safety challenges and risks and, ultimately, provide
reliable information for NHTSA's development of a long-range
intervention program. At a minimum, the envisioned long-range
intervention program would include relevant messaging based on survey
focus (messaging meant to reduce risks such as riding while impaired,
speeding, lack of personal protective equipment and helmet use, lack of
training, and unfamiliar motorcycle dynamics). For female passengers,
messaging may involve empowerment to make their own decisions and
encouragement to not get on a motorcycle with a rider who is impaired
or undertakes risky behaviors. Additional risk factors may be described
and addressed as a result of the research. The empirical results from
this study are intended to promote data-driven decision-making
regarding messaging and other safety program activities targeting the
five motorcycle rider/passenger segments.
Information from riders will be collected from five States:
California, Florida, Maryland, North Carolina, and Washington. NHTSA
proposes to collect information from approximately 1,000 riders in each
of the four rider-based segments (total of 4,000 respondents). In order
to reach this sample size, NHTSA intends to distribute the surveys to
up to 10,000 people per segment. Information will be collected for up
to two segments per State, but no person will receive more than one
survey. Information for the female-passenger segment will be collected
during a yet-to-be-determined large motorcycle event, such as the
Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota or Bike Week in Daytona,
Florida.
NHTSA will conduct a pilot of each survey with nine (9)
representatives of each rider segment prior to conducting the actual
survey. The pilot will be conducted in the same manner as the actual
survey, with the same States participating. The pilot for the female
passenger survey will be conducted at a smaller-scale motorcycle event.
Participants for the web-based survey will first receive a letter
inviting them to complete the survey. Participants will receive a
letter via the United States Postal Service (USPS) because DMV records
are unlikely to have email addresses for everyone. The paper invitation
will direct participants to a website to fill out the survey. The
invitation will include the link to the survey (participants would have
to type this into their browser), a QR code that the participant can
scan to get to the online survey, and a PIN unique to each participant
that they must enter when they go to the online survey. To reduce the
handling of personally identifiable information (PII), each State DMV
or licensing agency will handle the mailing of the survey invitation
letter to motorcycle owners based on motorcycle registrations, age,
citations related to the particular segment (i.e., driving while
impaired, speeding, or failure to wear a helmet), and gender specific
to each segment. NHTSA will provide a memorandum of understanding with
each State agency that will describe the process for distributing the
survey information and the sharing of data. NHTSA has funding available
to compensate each State for this effort.
For the female passenger intercept surveys, researchers will attend
the selected event and ask female attendees if they would be willing to
complete a survey for which they will be compensated. All surveys will
be completed on a one-on-one basis with each respondent, with
respondents entering their data in the survey via electronic device.
The surveys will begin with a set of screening questions to ensure
the respondent fits within the corresponding segment being studied and
will exclude participants who do not fit into the segment. All people
who receive an invitation to the survey will receive a $1 noncontingent
incentive, and those who complete the survey will receive a $25 gift
card. At the end of the survey, the participant will receive a link to
receive a TANGO Card,\1\ which allows for electronic or hard-copy
delivery, never expires, and has no fees associated with purchase or
use. Participants can choose to select their digital gift cards from a
catalog of retailers such as Walmart, Amazon, Starbucks, Target,
restaurants, etc. Incentives can also be turned over to charitable
organizations if desired by the participant.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Following the screening questions, the respondents will be given
approximately 40-60 questions specific to the survey's associated
segment. The questions will be a combination of multiple choice, fill
in the blank, and Likert scale (a five-point scale that is used to
allow the respondent to express how much they agree or disagree with a
particular statement), and may include responding to sounds and/or
images. The survey website will be developed to be Section 508
compliant. The survey will be hosted in a secure environment and will
not collect any PII. Each respondent will enter his or her unique
identifier, which will be used to ensure each respondent only responds
once and will also enable the data to be tied to specific driver
information such as impaired driving arrests, crashes, or failure to
wear a helmet, where such data may be obtained.
This collection is solely reporting, and there are no record-
keeping costs to the respondents. NHTSA will use the information to
produce a technical report that presents the results of the study. The
technical report will provide aggregate (summary) statistics and tables
as well as the results of statistical analysis of the information, but
it will not include any personal information. The technical report will
be shared with State highway safety offices, motorcycle safety advocacy
groups and organizations, local governments, and those who develop
traffic safety communications that aim to reduce motorcycle-related
crashes. The total estimated burden for recruiting
[[Page 13437]]
participants by the States (6,676 hours), for reading of the invitation
by potential participants (1,400 hours), for pilot testing of all
surveys (36 hours) and for 4,500 participants to complete the survey
(3,542 hours) is 11,654 total hours.
Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: NHTSA was established to reduce deaths, injuries, and
economic losses resulting from motor vehicle crashes on the Nation's
highways. As part of this statutory mandate, NHTSA is authorized to
conduct research for the development of traffic safety programs. While
motorcycles account for less than one percent of vehicle miles
traveled, in 2017 they accounted for 14 percent of all traffic
fatalities.\2\ Data about motorcyclists may suggest that they are a
disproportionally risk-taking population. Twenty-nine percent of
motorcyclists killed in collisions were operating without a valid
driver's license, which is higher than the 13 percent for passenger car
drivers. Thirty-two percent of all motorcyclist fatalities involved
speeding, compared to 18 percent for passenger car drivers. Twenty-
eight percent of motorcyclist fatalities had a blood alcohol
concentration (BAC) at or above 0.08 g/dL; this number increased to 42
percent at night.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/812785.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
However, motorcyclists are not a homogeneous group, varying in
their reasons for riding, the type of motorcycle they own or ride, the
places and times they ride, the personal protective equipment they use,
and their risk-taking behavior--all of which impact their safety and
risk for certain collision outcomes. NHTSA has identified five segments
of the riding population for which risk-taking can be better
understood. A data-driven approach to assessing risk-taking will enable
NHTSA to strategically and cost-effectively target interventions that
can improve motorcyclist safety.
Affected Public: For segments 1, 2, 4, and 5, surveys will be sent
only to people in the respective State DMV database who have a
motorcycle endorsement, have received citations related to the
particular segment (i.e., driving while impaired, speeding, or failure
to wear a helmet), have the specific type of motorcycle specific to the
segment (e.g., sport bike), are the defined sex for the segment, and
fall within the age range for the segment. For Segment 3, participants
will be females in attendance at a large-scale motorcycle event.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 4,545.
Participation in this study will be voluntary, and approximately
40,000 participants will be invited to take the four rider-segment
surveys and approximately 2,000 participants will be recruited to take
the female passenger intercept survey. It is estimated that 1,000
participants will complete the survey for each of the four rider
segments (total of 4,000 participants) and 500 participants will
complete the female passenger survey. In addition, 9 participants from
each segment will be invited to take the pilot surveys, for a total of
45 pilot participants.
Frequency: This survey is a one-time information collection, and
there will be no recurrence.
Estimated Total Burden Hours
Estimated Burden Hours for Participating States
The estimated time for States to send invitation letters to all
possible respondents is 10 minutes per person. Therefore, multiplying
the number of minutes per invitation by the number of invitations to
send per segment and rounding, there are 2 hours spent per segment in
the pilot (9 invitations x 10 min./60 = 1.5) and 1,667 hours per
segment for the full survey (10,000 invitations x 10 min./60 =
1,666.7). The total rounded burden hours for all segments that involve
sending an invitation (Segments 1, 2, 4, and 5) is 6,676 hours [8 hours
for the pilot (2 hours x 4) and 6,668 hours for the full survey (1,667
hours x 4)]. Each segment will be divided across two States with each
State sending surveys to no more than two segments. The total hours per
segment for participating States are detailed in Table 2.

* Each State will send survey invitations to half of the sample size of a segment for up to two segments (e.g., 5,000 participants in Segment 1 and
5,000 participants in Segment 2).
Estimated Total Labor Costs for Participating States
The labor cost associated with this collection of information for
participating States is derived by (1) applying the appropriate average
hourly labor rate published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, (2)
dividing by 0.619 (61.9%) \3\ for state and local government workers,
to obtain the total cost of compensation, and (3) multiplying by the
estimated burden hours for each segment. To arrive at the cost per
segment for each State, the total segment cost must be divided in half
since survey invitations for each segment will be divided across two
States, with each State sending surveys to no more than two segments.
Labor costs associated with States to send invitation letters are
estimated to be $28.09 per hour for ``Mail Clerks and Mail Machine
Operators, Except Postal Service,''
[[Page 13438]]
Occupation Code 43-9051, ($17.39 \4\ per hour / 0.619). The estimated
labor cost for participating States for each segment for the pilot is
estimated to be $56.18 rounded to $56.00 ($28.09 x 2 hours) and the
estimated labor cost for each segment for the full survey is estimated
to be $46,826.03 rounded to $46,826 ($28.09 x 1,667 hours). Therefore,
the estimated total rounded labor costs for participating States for
all segments that involve sending an invitation (Segments 1, 2, 4, and
5) is $187,528 ($224 for the pilot ($56.00 x 4 = $224) and $187,304 for
the full survey ($46,826 x 4 = $187,304)). Each State will receive an
estimated $10,000 stipend from NHTSA for their assistance with mailing
the surveys. The stipend funding has been included in the contract for
conducting this survey and is not an additional cost for NHTSA.
Additional benefits for a State DMV participation other than the
stipend is it provides research that will inform future programs for
motorcycle safety. This could lead to programs, resources and product
development, and other items that promote motorcycle safety. The
maximum estimated labor costs for the burden hours per State is
$36,882, after the stipend provided by NHTSA. The burden costs for
participating States are detailed in Table 3 below:

Estimated Burden Hours for Survey Participants and Nonrespondents
The total burden hours for potential survey participants are
derived by estimating the number of minutes each potential participant
would spend on reading the survey invitation and multiplying by the
number of potential participants. Approximately 40,000 potential
participants will receive an invitation to take one of the four rider-
segment surveys and approximately 2,000 potential participants will be
recruited to take the female passenger intercept survey. NHTSA
estimates that each potential participant will spend up to 2 minutes
reading and reviewing the invitation; therefore, the total burden hours
for recruiting participants is estimated to be 1,400 hours ((40,000 x
2/60) + (2,000 x 2/60)), as shown in Table 4.

For participants who decide to take the survey, each survey
includes approximately 5 minutes for screening questions and between 30
and 50 minutes to take the survey. The estimated time for the pilot
participants who take the survey is 36 hours and the estimated time for
the full survey participants is 3,542 hours. Therefore, the total
burden hours for the full survey for all segments is 3,578 hours (3,281
hours for riders and 297 hours for passengers). The burden hours for
respondents are detailed in Table 5. Burden hours were estimated using
1 minute to read the introduction, 30 seconds per multiple choice
question, and 1 minute per multiple answer question.

Therefore, the total burden hours for survey participants and
nonrespondents for the pilot and full survey for all segments is 4,978
hours (1,400 hours for recruitment and 3,578 hours for respondents).
Estimated Total Burden Hour Opportunity Costs for Survey Participants
The burden hour cost associated with this collection of information
for respondents is derived by multiplying the appropriate average
American wage published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics by the
estimated burden hours for participants for each segment. The average
American wage is estimated to be $29.81 per hour for ``all employees on
private nonfarm payrolls.\5\'' The estimated opportunity cost for
participants for each segment for the pilot and full survey is
$106,660.00, detailed in Table 6.
