SimulatorsTwo new driving simulators have been installed in the National Corvette Museum. The simulators focus on five areas of driving: Emergency Driving Situations; Driving Under the Influence; Speed, Road Conditions, and Stopping Distances; Hazard Perception and Fuel Efficient Driving.

The simulators were partially funded through a grant from the transportation cabinet and were developed by Virage of Canada. The simulators are the first of their kind in the United States and will be available in the coming weeks for Museum visitors to utilize.
