    THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THIS REPORT DESCRIBES THE CURRENT LEVEL OF TECHNOLOGY USED BY U.S. MOTOR CARRIERS AND PROVIDES ASSESSMENTS OF THE SIX PROPOSED TECHNOLOGY-BASED FHWA ITS/CVO USER SERVICES. ISSUES SURROUNDING IMPLEMENTATION OF THE USER SERVICES ARE ALSO PRESENTED. THE FINAL REPORT THOROUGHLY DETAILS THE ANALYSIS.

    THE SIX PROPOSED USER SERVICES HAVE BEEN ASSESSED IN TWO WAYS:

    CALCULATING MOTOR CARRIER BENEFIT/COST RATIOS, AND ESTIMATING POTENTIAL MOTOR

    CARRIER PARTICIPATION. THE ASSESSMENTS ARE BASED ON THE PERCEPTIONS OF 700

    U.S. MOTOR CARRIERS RESPONDING TO AN ATA FOUNDATION SURVEY CONCERNING

    LABOR REQUIREMENTS FOR COMPLYING WITH REGULATIONS, AND ON THEIR CURRENT USE

    OF TECHNOLOGY THE ASSESSMENTS ARE LIMITED BY NARROW ASSUMPTIONS, NECESSARY IN ORDER TO DRAW INFERENCES ABOUT PROGRAMS WHICH DO NOT CURRENTLY

    EXIST AND TO ADVANCE UNDERSTANDING AND FACILITATE DISCUSSION OF THE ENVISIONED GOVERNMENT APPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY.
