At the request of the U.S. Congress, the National Research council, Operating through the Transportation Research Board (TRB), assembled a committee of 13 to assess the capacity and demand for the National Advanced Driving Simulator (NADS). Specifically, the committee was asked to determine wheather it is highly likely that NADS will be used to at least 80 percent of capacity, as defined by the TRB, after a start-up period of two years; provided that for the purposes of TRB determination, no more than 50 percent of capacity usuage is attributed to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The committee was not asked to assess the need for NADS nor was it asked to assess the NADS program; opinions about these topics are not expressed in the report. Background material on the NADS project, simulator technology, uses of driving simulators, users of advanced driving simulators, and costs of using an advanced driving simulator is also included.
