TranSim™ Series 8 Truck Driving Simulator

Truck Driving Simulator Benefits

Simulation training allows practice of critical decision-making skills and reinforces positive decision making, situation and spatial awareness in a realistic, risk-free environment.

PRACTICAL TRAINING

Enhances initial driver training, periodic training and driver assessments allowing you to conduct practical real-world training on different terrains and for different road and atmospheric conditions.

REDUCE CRASHES

Significantly reduced preventable crashes as well as reduced severity of crashes.

IMPROVE FUEL EFFICIENCY

Lower operational costs through better fuel efficiency. Realize fuel savings through better fuel management training.

REDUCE VEHICLE COSTS

Minimize maintenance and damage to company-owned vehicles. Training on the simulator keeps your vehicles on the road and earning revenue.

IMPROVE DRIVER RETENTION

Complete, consistent, objective feedback on performance gives drivers the skills and confidence to drive more safely and more efficiently.

FLEXIBLE DELIVERY OPTIONS

Include fixed-site installation in a building or fully mobile training unit in a trailer or truck. Trailer options available to outfit in a mobile driver training unit complete with on-site classroom and instructors. ding or fully mobile training unit in a trailer or truck.

Testimonials

The simulators are a safe and cost-effective training tool to get our equipment operators thinking about the upcoming winter season [and] give our new operators hands-on experience that they otherwise wouldn’t get until the snow is on the ground.

Billie Miller

Virginia DOT Safety Officer

Has the training been beneficial? With regard to operator safety, I can tell you that this winter DPW has logged about 34,000 hours in the snow program, probably 90 percent of it driver time, and we haven’t had a single reported accident since the training.

Tom Henderson

Washington D.C. Solid Waste Administrator

I have not had one truck in the shop for transmission repair since 2006. We used to have a lot of transmission repairs from teaching people how to shift the gears out on the training runway. Now that students learn to shift on a simulator first, we don’t have them grinding gears and tearing up transmissions.
