Abstract This report describes Phase I of a two-phased assessment of the effects of loading and unloading cargo on truck drivers alertness and performance. The report, which documents work done on three Phase I tasks, contains: a) a comprehensive behavioral and physiological sciences literature review regarding sustained performance and operator fatigue, with a focus on the effects of expending physical work energy on operator fatigue. b) a characterization of commercial motor vehicle industry procedures, methods and practices concerning drivers who load and / or unload their vehicles (trucks/buses). This was accomplished by examining trucking industry trade literature on loading/unloading procedural matters, then conducting a questionnaire survey of over 300 truck drivers, followed by sixteen focus group interviews to understand driver loading/unloading requirements across the country, and 17. c) a behavioral task analysis assessment of various driver loading and unloading scenarios in four cargo commodity groups: moving household furniture and goods, tank truck carrier operations, fast food supply delivery, and beverage delivery operations Phase II of the overall study involved a truck driver simulator-based experiment to assess the effects of physical activity on loading /unloading cargo on subsequent driver alertness and driving performance. The Phase II experiment is described fully in a companion report, No. FHWA-MC-99-140, Effects of Operating Practices on Commercial Driver Alertness. Keywords 18.

Throughout the remainder of this report we will use the former agency name (OMCHS) which was in effect at the time this research was conducted. The FMCSA program places special emphasis on assessments of commercial driver fatigue and studies pertinent to hours-of-service rules. As part of the R&T Program, this document reports driver fatigue research specifically addressing an assessment of the activities of commercial motor vehicle (CMV) drivers loading and unloading cargo in their trucks and what effects that physical work has on their subsequent levels of driving alertness, or the possible development of driver fatigue. The project was conducted in two phases. Phase I of the study (conducted in 1996-97 and reported in this technical report) involved: a) a comprehensive literature review on the effects of expending physical energy on development of operator fatigue, b) a questionnaire survey of over 300 truck drivers, and sixteen focus group interviews to understand driver loading/unloading requirements across the country, and c) a behavioral task analysis assessment of various driver loading and unloading scenarios. Phase II of the project, conducted in 1997-98, involved a truck driver simulator-based experiment as an assessment of the effects of physical activity in loading/unloading cargo on subsequent driver alertness and driving performance. This experiment measured and documented truck driver’s performance on a daily schedule of 14-hours-on-duty (with 12 hours simulator driving) followed by 1 0-hours-off-duty for two successive workweeks of 5 days each. The study also examined the “weekend” rest/recovery process over the 58-hour off-duty period between the two successive weeks. Details of the simulator experiment and the test results are described by O’Neill, Krueger, Van Hemel, & McGowan, and contained in the September 1999 FHWA Report No. FHWA-MC-99-140. The two-phased project was conducted as part of a 1996 Cooperative R&D Agreement between FHWA-OMCHS and the American Trucking Associations Foundation - Trucking Research Institute (ATAF-TRI), Alexandria, Virginia. TRI’s project officers for oversight management of the project were Clyde E. Woodle and William C. Rogers, Ph.D. The entire project was conducted on a TRI subcontract to a team of human factors researchers at Star Mountain, Inc. in Alexandria, Virginia: Timothy R. O’Neill, Ph.D., Gerald P. Krueger, Ph.D., Susan B. Van Hemel, Ph.D., and Adam L. McGowan. Gerald Krueger and Susan Van Hemel did the bulk of the work for Phase I of this project and prepared this report. Robert J. Carroll, project manager, and Ronald R. Knipling, Ph.D., Chief, Motor Carrier Research and Standards, Research Division, served as the Federal Highway Administration’s project monitors. ) Table of Contents Preface 1 '* Table of Contents . — Executive Summary 1 Section I.

This year’s Outlook for the Intercity Bus Industry report draws attention to some of the industry’s changing fundamentals while also looking at notable developments anticipated this year and beyond. Our analysis evaluates the industry in six areas: i) The status of bus travel booking through January 2021; ii) Notable marketing and service developments of 2020; iii) The decline of the national bus network sold on greyhound.com that is relied upon by travelers on thousands of routes across the U.S.

    The Hours of Service (HOS) Rule for Commercial Truck Drivers and the Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Mandate David Randall Peterman Analyst in Transportation Policy March 18, 2020 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov R46276 SUMMARY R46276 The Hours of Service (HOS) Rule March 18, 2020 for Commercial Truck Drivers and the David Randall Peterman Analyst in Transportation Electronic Logging Device (ELD) Mandate Policy In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, on March 13, 2020, the Department of Transportation [email protected] (DOT) issued a national emergency declaration to exempt from the Hours of Service (HOS) rule through April 12, 2020, commercial drivers providing direct assistance in support of relief efforts For a copy of the full report, related to the virus. This includes transport of certain supplies and equipment, as well as please call 7-.... or visit personnel. Drivers are still required to have at least 10 consecutive hours off duty (eight hours if www.crs.gov. transporting passengers) before returning to duty. It has been estimated that up to 20% of bus and large truck crashes in the United States involve fatigued drivers. In order to promote safety by reducing the incidence of fatigue among commercial drivers, federal law limits the number of hours a driver can drive through the HOS rule. Currently the HOS rule allows truck drivers to work up to 14 hours a day, during which time they can drive up to 11 hours, followed by at least 10 hours off duty before coming on duty again; also, within the first 8 hours on duty drivers must take a 30-minute break in order to continue driving beyond 8 hours.
