SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Federal Register Notice with a 60-day 
comment period soliciting comments on the following information 
collection was published on September 2, 2015 (80 FR 53225). The agency 
received one comment that asked how this collection related to the 
agency's mission and expressed concern over the lifetime of digital 
information.
    The NDR's Problem Driver Pointer System (PDPS) is a central 
repository of information that identifies individuals whose license to 
operate a motor vehicle has been denied, suspended or revoked for 
cause, or who have been convicted of certain serious traffic related 
violations. The information on the PDPS is reported to and maintained 
by the States who are responsible to review information from PDPS and 
to take adverse action as determined necessary against problem drivers. 
While NHTSA operates the system to provide the information to the 
States, the determination of whether or not to license an applicant 
driver remains the responsibility of a State using the system. Upon 
restoration of the driving privilege, the pointer records are removed 
by the State-of-Record.
    Title: National Driver Register (NDR).
    OMB Control Number: 2127-0001.
    Type of Request: Extension of Clearance.
    Abstract: The purpose of the NDR is to assist States and other 
authorized users in obtaining information about problem drivers. State 
motor vehicle agencies submit and use the information for driver 
licensing purposes. Other users obtain the information for 
transportation safety purposes.
    Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal Government.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: The number of respondents is 51--
the fifty States and the District of Columbia.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,847.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspects of 
this information collection, including (a) whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Department, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Department's estimate 
of the burden of the proposed information collection; (c) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology.

    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35, as amended; and 49 CFR 1:48.
