A commercial trucking simulator to meet compliance and improve your bottom line
Standardize training for both experienced and new drivers, address compliance-breaking habits and save on fuel costs with a single commercial trucking simulator.
Top three challenges facing commercial truck training and their solutions
Problem: Fleet training isn’t meeting current compliance standards
Generalized driver training does not meet modern transportation fleet needs. You need customized training to address new and experienced drivers and their individual requirements. Generic training leads to inexperienced drivers, accidents and raised operational costs.
Solution: A customizable all-in-one driving simulator
A customizable commercial truck driving simulator addresses these problems. Choose pre-made experiences or create scenarios based on your driver performance gaps. Whether it is teaching trucking compliance or emergency maneuvers, TranSim™ covers all your training needs.
Problem: Increasing operational costs
Fuel, insurance, truck replacement and repair prices are increasing. Accidents significantly add to these costs, and poor driving is often the cause: 63% of large truck fatal crashes were due to hitting another vehicle, person, animal or object.
Solution: Reduce operational costs with a simulator
Save on fuel by training by using a commercial truck driving simulator instead of the road. Drivers will practice for multiple scenarios that happen on the road in a safe environment, reducing fleet accidents.
Problem: Gaining and retaining drivers
A common concern of drivers is the quality of driver training and the company’s commercial trucking safety standards. Only 28.5% of drivers reported being happy with their company’s training, leading them to search for new opportunities.
Solution: Focus on building driver skills
Allow drivers to practice in a controlled environment with TranSim™ to build their driving confidence. Our simulator features a real-feel experience without the dangers. Upgrading training indicates that fleet safety is a priority for your company.
