N2 - Privacy is a major policy factor in the deployment of Vehicle Infrastructure Integration and other ubiquitous location-based mobility access systems, yet the full benefits of many such systems will be obtained only after significant deployment of the necessary technologies. In order to address privacy concerns and build solutions that reflect users' privacy preferences, it is necessary to identify factors that affect users' privacy preferences. Using a household travel survey that also instruments a sub-sample of households with vehicle-based or portable GPS devices, we develop econometric models of privacy propensities of households as a function of their sociodemographics, trip-making behavior, location and other factors. The results provide insights into factors that might serve as barriers into the early adoption of these technologies.
