Abstract:
This is a request to revise a currently approved collection to add rental companies to the list of entities that are exempted from the make inoperative prohibition to modify vehicles for use by disabled drivers. NHTSA is proposing to permit rental car companies to make inoperative a knee bolster air bag, on a temporary basis, to permit the temporary installation of hand controls to accommodate persons with physical disabilities seeking to rent the vehicle, to require that they provide each customer for whom they modify a vehicle pursuant to this exemption with a list of the exemptions used to modify that vehicle, and to retain a copy of the document provided to the customer for five years. The purpose of this requirement is for the customer to be made aware that their rental vehicle is being modified in such a way that it may no longer comply with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. The purpose of the document retention requirement is to facilitate enforcement by NHTSA in the event of potential violations of the terms of the make inoperative exemption in this proposal, and to facilitate the investigation and identification of vehicles in the event a subsequent safety problem arises that could relate to the manner in which the vehicles were modified. This revision would result in 1,333 additional burden hours associated with the collection.

Short Statement:
This is a request to revise a currently approved collection to add rental companies to the list of entities that are exempted from the make inoperative prohibition to modify vehicles for use by disabled drivers. Rental companies would be subject to similar requirements to those applicable to modifiers making permanent modifications related to disclosure of information and record retention. NHTSA has not proposed requiring modifiers to register with NHTSA. This revision would result in the addition of 1,333 burden hours to the collection.
