2. Goal:  Is to instruct student’s the proper driving experience, learn the rules of the road from class discussions and testing.  Once applied this knowledge student can engage in a Driver Simulation to assess skills & attain simulated experiences of Driving.

3. SimuRide Commercial Edition  - Engaging your students in hands-on, classroom learning by having them interact with the virtual car - Making it easier to see progress with an automatic drive report - Better preparing students for in-car activity by giving them a feel for responsible vehicle operation - Lessening student anxiety in anticipation of real driving - Allowing students to practice any maneuver at any time depending on your schedule or their needs - Giving students more practice mileage and saving time (and fuel) with multiple simulators

4. SimuRide Commercial Edition  The SimuRide Commercial Edition is a 3D driving simulation program for the personal computer, used with any plug and play PC steering set. It can be used with one or three monitors, displaying various driving scenarios from the driver's seat of an automatic passenger vehicle.
