SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year, 

NHTSA executes a broad array of 

research programs in support of 

Administration, DOT, and agency 

priorities. The agency’s research 

portfolio covers program areas 

pertaining to vehicle safety including 

safety countermeasures implemented 

through the vehicle, its components, 

operations and use, accessibility 

considerations, alternative fuels, among 

others; and behavioral safety including 

safety countermeasures that pertain to 

the behavior and actions of drivers, 

occupants, and other road users, 

including vulnerable populations. 

NHTSA holds Safety Research 

Portfolio public meetings to provide 

public outreach regarding research 

activities at NHTSA for both vehicle and 

behavioral safety, including expected 

near-term deliverables, and solicit 

stakeholder questions and input. 

NHTSA’s Safety Research Portfolio 

meetings are historically held in-person. 

The agency’s most recent Safety 

Research Portfolio public meeting was 

held on November 20–21, 2019. These 

meetings draw large numbers of 

attendees among automotive safety 

stakeholder groups, including 

international audience members. Due to 

the continued and varied global effects 

of the COVID–19 public health 

emergency, in an abundance of caution,
