SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal 

Motor Vehicle Safety Standards 

mandate antilock braking systems (ABS) 

on heavy vehicles and underride guards 

(URG) on heavy trailers. Repair receipts 

from in-service vehicles were analyzed 

to estimate the maintenance and repair 

expenses to the ABS and URG. The 

average ABS expenses per month of 

operation were $0.85 for tractors and 

$0.25 for trailers. The presence of ABS 

did not increase expenses to other parts 

of the brake system. The estimated 

lifetime maintenance and repair 

expenses were notably smaller than the 

cost of equipping new vehicles with 

ABS. Repairs to the trailer URG 

averaged $0.16 per month of service. 

(All values are in 2007 dollars.) 

Procedural Matters 

How can I influence NHTSA’s thinking 

on this subject? 

NHTSA welcomes public review of 

the technical report. The agency is 

interested in learning of any additional 

data that may be useful in the 

evaluations. The availability of data on 

later model year tractors and trailers is 

especially relevant because ABSequipped vehicles in this analysis could 

have been at most six years old. NHTSA 

will submit to the Docket a response to 

the comments and, if appropriate, will 

supplement or revise the report. 

How do I prepare and submit
