Over the last 30 years technology has improved many things in our lives, allowing us to work, play, and learn in new ways. Surprisingly, there are still some areas that haven’t capitalized on technological advancement, and learning how to drive is one of them. Greenlight Simulation is on a mission to change that with our innovative simulator-based driver training program.
Simulator-Based Training is Proven Technology
Research has shown that simulators are an effective driver training tool, and simulation training is trusted in other high-risk industries like aviation, law enforcement, and medicine. Building on that foundation of effectiveness, Greenlight Simulation is the first company to bring simulator-based driver training to the general public. Rather than just throwing unprepared new drivers behind the wheel like we do now, Greenlight teaches them the core skills of driving, in the safety of a virtual world, before they get behind the wheel in real life.
Not Just For New Drivers
Because simulators provide a safe way to practice things that are difficult, dangerous, or scary, Greenlight can also help experienced drivers improve their driving. With sessions designed to practice things like hydroplaning and skid recovery Greenlight has something for drivers of all levels; not just brand new learners.
Developed by Driving Experts
Greenlight’s Chief Driving Officer has logged thousands of hours training and coaching US Special Forces, professional racing drivers, and US Department of State foreign service personnel, through an array of different advanced driving programs. The team at Greenlight have distilled that knowledge and expertise into a comprehensive learning experience that guides students through a series of training scenarios that build upon one another to create a solid foundation of driving skill. To help track their performance and progress, all trainees receive a personal scorecard and video replays of their driving. A key component of this feedback is Greenlight’s unique eye-tracking data overlay which illustrates what the driver was looking at while driving. This information, available only at Greenlight, is an invaluable tool for teaching and improving visual performance which is critical to vehicle control, risk awareness, and defensive driving.
Confident Drivers = Safer, Better Drivers
With more distractions, higher levels of traffic, and an increase in road rage incidents, Greenlight knows that learning to drive can be stressful for both teens and parents. We all know that it’s hard to learn, or teach, under these conditions. Greenlight’s simulator-based training removes those learning barriers and provides a risk-free, low-stress environment where drivers get a grasp of the foundational driving skills, gain experience, and build confidence before getting behind the wheel in real life. Both parents and teens who’ve chosen Greenlight have said that the training courses eased their anxiety and have given them confidence to get out on the road.
Training Packages Available for Drivers of all Levels
Whether you or your child are just getting started, have a Learner’s Permit with some behind-the-wheel experience, or are a licensed driver looking to improve your skills, Greenlight has a program that can help. You can also book a free 10-minute demo drive if you want to see what it’s all about.
