Driving School of The Future
“Driving School of the Future” is a driving school that sets the benchmark for the future of the sector. With the issue of accidents and road fatalities in the Kingdom in and in Al Madinah city in particular, changing driving behaviors should start with empowering and educating drivers from early stages. These schools will deploy technologies such as virtual reality and simulators that feature a driving cockpit, an immersive environment, real-time vehicle telemetry, and a series of driving scenarios specially created for Al Madinah conditions. They will provide an initial training through state-of-the-art simulators, featuring hundreds of driving scenarios to help target specific driving challenges. Meanwhile, the seat, steering wheel, dash, gears, and pedals are from an actual vehicle. Children will be also targeted through games for teaching transportation rules to raise awareness at an early age.
