Summary

This report assesses the feasibility of using commercial motor vehicle simulation technology for driver training, testing, and licensing. The study involved a comprehensive literature review, the development of functional requirements for simulators, and an evaluation of existing simulator systems in the United States and Europe. The analysis identified the capabilities of current technology and highlighted areas where information was lacking. The report concludes by recommending further research and development to validate the technology for official use. It suggests that simulation technology has the potential to improve driver proficiency if properly validated.

Key finding

The study concludes that commercial motor vehicle simulation technology is feasible for improving driver training and licensing, provided that further validation research is conducted to establish standards.
