The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) recognizes the need to collect information regarding prescription and over-the-counter (Rx/OTC) medication and its involvement in fatal accidents. FTA has relied upon voluntary reporting of employee Rx/OTC use during accident investigations. The voluntary nature of this information gathering process and lack of standardization between transit systems, however, makes it difficult to create a meaningful database that meets the needs of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The FTA is working toward creation of a standardized method of collecting the information on the role of Rx/OTC medications in transit industry major accidents. As a part of this effort, this survey is intended to gather information from transit systems on how the use of Rx/OTC medications is evaluated as part of the system's accident investigation procedures. Please answer each question to the best of your ability. It is also requested that you complete this survey by {date}. All information will be aggregated to provide system anonymity. You might be contacted to provide additional information or clarification. If you have any questions regarding this survey, please contact Todd Lenz at (937) 299-5007 or via email at tlenz@rlsandassoc.com. Click here to begin
