Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I-Sim?s state-of-the-art simulation technology to provide a highly realistic training environment. The open-seat driving station incorporates I-Sim?s vehicle dynamics, preset and user-programmable traffic scenarios, and sophisticated road surface software to ensure a true-to-life experience for drivers of all abilities. Since there is no effective novice driver training program required or available for our teens this will educate adn train our teens based on prven training methods and equipment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

A reduced number of teenage driver fatalities ages 15-19.
