Driving Distraction Sim

Driving Distraction Simulator Hire

Driver Distractions Simulator

Teaching drivers about the everyday distractions they face is a practical and affordable approach to minimising accidents, reducing collision and conviction rates, safeguarding a company’s reputation, and avoiding avoidable expenses and penalties. The Driver Distractions program emphasises the dangers associated with distractions, the reasons they occur, and strategies to effectively manage and lower their occurrence. Our skilled driver trainers actively involve participants to enhance the learning process while encouraging the sharing of perspectives and opinions.

The Driver Awareness course is designed to educate you on
the risks linked to driving, enabling you to better anticipate and manage potential hazards and distractions. Enhancing your skills, it aims to create a safer driving experience for you and everyone on the road.

Driver Distractions

In the UK, distracted driving, especially using a handheld phone, is illegal and carries serious penalties: a £200 fine and 6 penalty points, potentially leading to license loss for new drivers, with prosecution possible if not in full control, even with hands-free use. Beyond phones, distractions like eating, adjusting controls, or having stressed passengers are also risky, as they involve visual, manual, or cognitive attention away from the road, increasing crash risk. The law prohibits using handheld devices for calls, texts, or navigation, even at traffic lights, and police can stop you if you seem distracted or lose control, regardless of the device. 

 
What’s Illegal (Phone Use)
    • Holding or using a hand-held phone or similar device (sat-nav, tablet) for calls, texts, or data while driving. 
       
  • This applies even when stopped at traffic lights, queuing, or supervising a learner. 
 

Other Distractions  

  • Hands-Free: Still risky; you can be prosecuted if not in full control.
  • Visual: Eyes off the road (phone, sat-nav).
  • Manual: Hands off the wheel (eating, smoking, fiddling with controls).
  • Cognitive: Mind wandering (stress, complex conversations).
  • Physical: Unsuitable footwear or loose items.
