摘要: The transit community, like most private and government organizations, is facing a shortage of well-trained employees, including transit bus operators. At the same time, transit agencies are re-emphasizing the requirement for safe and efficient transit bus operations. Numerous advanced technologies are candidates for helping transit agencies meet these various objectives. One such technology is driving simulation. If student bus operators can be trained more efficiently and more effectively using simulation, both training costs and operations costs can be reduced. However, only a handful of transit agencies are using driving simulation, and, even among these agencies, different types of simulations are being used. Because simulation technology is new and ever changing, transit agencies need guidelines not only on whether to use simulation but also how and when to use it. It is also possible that different agencies may have different needs for simulations.
