GE Capital I-Sim recently opened its Driver Development Service Centre in Salt Lake City. The new facility combines classroom instruction with new, state-of-the-art driving simulators. Whether it's truck drivers, police officers or emergency vehicle operators, the I-Sim program focuses on real-life scenarios that train drivers how to avoid accidents without endangering life or property. "We can train truck drivers to manoeuvre their 18-wheelers through hazardous road conditions, or emergency vehicles to reach a disaster scene quickly and safely", said Mark Stulga, CEO of GE Capital I-Sim. "Our complete program lets drivers take classroom learning straight to a lifelike simulator. I-Sim technology allows instructors to correct virtual mistakes before they become reality." The Salt Lake City facility features the new, Mark II simulator – a full-size, fully operational truck cab placed in a three-dimensional cinema. Similarly, police officers can get lifelike training on the latest PatrolSim. GE Capital I-Sim plans to open new Driver Development Service Centres in Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia. For additional information, visit http://www.i-sim.com.
