Abstract:The number of vehicles with adaptive equipment is expected to continue to
increase as the U. S. population ages and as access to employment, travel,
and recreation continues to improve for persons with disabilities, as a result
of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). To guide agency research in this
area, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) began soliciting
information on potential safety issues for users of adapted vehicles via the
NHTSA Internet site in 1997. This research note provides a summary of
questionnaire responses to date. 2p.
