Opportunity Summary:
The Click It or Ticket Next Generation (CIOT) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number DTNH22 08 R 00151) was a discretionary National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) cooperative agreement designed to fund a single, statewide demonstration project focused on seat belt enforcement and public compliance. The core idea was to test whether running several smaller, interim Click It or Ticket mobilization periods over a 24-month span could better sustain and build on the seat belt use gains typically seen during the national CIOT campaign. Rather than relying on one major enforcement wave, the project emphasized repeated, strategically timed mobilizations to keep seat belt enforcement visible and maintain public attention over a longer period.
The project was specifically aimed at a state with a secondary seat belt law and a seat belt usage rate below 82.4 percent during the national CIOT campaign. In practical terms, this targeted states where officers generally cannot stop a vehicle solely for a seat belt violation (secondary enforcement), and where observed seat belt use was lagging behind the stated threshold. The overall goal was to raise seat belt use and keep it elevated, using a sustained enforcement-and-publicity approach that could be evaluated as a potential next step for CIOT strategy in similar states.
Funding was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning NHTSA expected to be actively involved with the recipient in carrying out and overseeing the work, rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The award amount was fixed, with both an award ceiling and floor of $1,200,000, indicating one planned award at that amount. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the selected state would not have been required to contribute its own funds to meet a match.
Eligible applicants were limited to state governments. The opportunity was categorized under Law, Justice and Legal Services, and it fell under CFDA 20.614 (NHTSA Discretionary Safety Grants). The notice was posted July 11, 2008, with an application deadline of August 11, 2008, and it was later archived on September 10, 2008. For administrative or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact was Wendell Crowder, Contract Specialist at NHTSA (202-366-5456, wendell.crowder@dot.gov).
