The University of Iowa Driving Safety Research Institute (DSRI) is inviting adult drivers to complete a survey as part of a research study. The purpose of the study is to gather information from motorists who were operating a passenger vehicle equipped with advanced technology that was involved in a crash or near-crash in the last 12 months.

Some volunteers who complete the survey will be invited to participate in an optional virtual interview about their crash. This will take up to 1.5 hours to complete.

There is no compensation for completing the questionnaire.

• Adults aged 18 +

• Drivers who were operating a passenger vehicle on a roadway that was involved in a crash or near-crash in the last 12 months. (A near-crash is defined as anytime you or another person took evasive action to avoid a collision with another vehicle or object, not including animals.)

• The passenger vehicle involved in the crash or near-crash had at least one advanced technology (i.e., Adaptive Cruise Control, Automated Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Centering Assist, Blind Spot Warning, etc.)
