The purpose of this document is to provide economic benefits, expected costs, and industry returns on investment for roll stability control systems. Verification of the costs and benefits of safety systems is critical to facilitate voluntary acceptance of these systems in the motor carrier industry. To ensure deployment, systems must be cost-effective investments that meet user needs. Confidence in onboard safety systems ability to reduce CMV-involved fatalities and injuries is a necessary precondition for acceptance and adoption of these systems. The benefit-cost analysis presented in this document covers financial metrics, such as return on investment and payback periods, for the end users of the onboard safety systems--commercial motor carriers. This document intends to augment, rather than supersede, previous analyses that have focused on onboard safety systems. |
