eladon Truckingannounced re-
cently the it has purchased four
driving simulators for use in its
newly renamed Celadon Driving Acad-
emy, which was previously Celadon's
Quality Drivers School.
The TransSimVS driving simula-
tors will be used at the company's
Indianapolis academy. They are
designed to introduce student drivers
to real-world driving environments to
train them for careers as drivers in the
trucking industry.
Scott Vogel, director of Celadon
Driving Academy, said the simulation-
based training adds to the driver train-
ing experience.
"It allows us to conduct real world
training on different terrains and for
different road conditions in the class-
room," Vogel said. "These simulators
will serve as an effective complement
to the actual, behind-the-wheel driving
that our students are required to com-
plete as part of the curriculum." ◆
