Revamped simulator lessons - a new era of learning
A safe and effective way to learn 🚗❤️
During the autumn of 2025, Epic Driving School has renewed its network of simulators in cooperation with Tenstar Simulation AB of Sweden.
The renewed network of simulators allows us to offer our customers an even better learning experience. Modern simulator technology is a safe way to learn to drive and also offers the opportunity to deepen skills, whether in passenger cars, emergency vehicles or heavy equipment 💪🏼
Proven effective
A study conducted at the University of Turku has found that simulator teaching is even higher quality than formal driving instruction when the measure is to pass a driving test.
The study focused on a statistical comparison of the success of pupils driving in a simulator in the driving test of the driver examination compared to those pupils who did not complete traffic driving exercises in the simulator, but had received only formal driving instruction. Simescar simulators developed in collaboration between Epic Autokoulu Oy and Simumak S.L. designed for Nordic conditions were used as simulators in the study.
The study revealed that there is a weak correlation between the number of simulators and the passing of the driver examination driving test, which is not statistically significant. The number of driving tests will decrease when the number of simulator instructions is increased.
The Finnish driver training system is degree-based, in which the degree comprehensively measures the driver's competence in traffic. Above all, the research carried out shows that the simulator does not have a negative impact on learning outcomes and, consequently, on transport skills.
