CDC requests Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval to collect survey data using the Taxi Driver
Survey, from taxicab drivers in two cities once during a 30 minute
time period, and is seeking clearance for an 18-month period.
Because each taxicab driver will be waiting for taxicab inspection
to be completed, the taxicab driver will be available. Responding
to the survey is not expected to entail significant burden to
respondents. The study objectives will be addressed using a survey
designed to capture prevalence and frequency of adverse motor
vehicle events and injuries, road safety data elements and
workplace violence data elements. Multivariable regression models
will provide measures of association. Data will be collected on 500
taxi drivers in each of two cities during the annual vehicle
inspection for each city. The estimated burden per response is 30
minutes. The survey questions are from validated questionnaires and
were pilot tested. Since all taxicab drivers are required to have a
working knowledge of English and literacy is of concern, the survey
will be administered in English using a 6th grade comprehension
level. CDC anticipates that routine information collection will be
conducted in City 1 during the month of April 2014 and during one
month in FY 2015 for City 2. The information collected will
describe road safety and workplace violence experiences in the past
24 months.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).

the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;

(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);

(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;

these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
