- Description
- The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is an integral part of the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) and its mission is to save lives, prevent injuries, and reduce traffic-related health care and other economic costs associated with motor vehicle crashes. To accomplish this, NHTSA collects and analyzes motor vehicle crash data and develops, promotes, and implements educational programs, vehicle safety standards, research, and enforcement programs. NHTSA and many local jurisdictions and advocacy groups are interested in learning more about how the use of interlocks can be improved. Some jurisdictions across the country are interested in using ignition interlocks but feel there are barriers to their use. This project will document, step-by-step, the various ways interlock systems are currently initiated, implemented, and working in the United States, and how these processes could work better, easier and more efficiently. The study will examine the entire interlock system - from advocacy of a law or implementation of a program, to further sanctions for offenders who fail their breath tests or tamper with their device. This information will assist those interested in implementing and improving interlock programs across the country. Within the last several years, NHTSA has produced a number of products on the interlock issue; the key difference that distinguishes this project from other NHTSA efforts is the focus on the entire interlock system, and the identification of implementation and use issues, and how they can be successfully resolved. The objective of this requirement is to (1) document the implementation and operational processes of interlock programs; identify loopholes and weaknesses of interlock systems, and then also identify possible fixes for these issues and (2) highlight components from individual programs that illustrate steps, problems or weaknesses, and solutions in the process. This procurement is 8(a) set aside. The NAICS Code for this contract is 541720.
