Bus Driver Fatigue and Stress Issues Study Final Report November 18, 1999 I INTRODUCTION Arrowhead Space and Telecommunications, Inc. conducted a research project to identify unique aspects of operations within the motorcoach industry which may produce bus driver fatigue and stress. Funding for and oversight of the study was provided by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Office of Motor Carriers (OMC). The purpose of this study is to (1) identify from direct interaction with motorcoach owners, safety directors, operations managers, and drivers those fatigue-inducing stresses which they believe are unique to the motorcoach industry; (2) evaluate the relative influence of these stresses on bus driver fatigue; (3) provide relevant feedback to the FHWA/OMC for its use in future decisions which will affect the motorcoach industry; and (4) develop an outreach video to help motorcoach drivers understand the effects of fatigue, the stresses that induce it, and means to reduce it.
