Car Driving Simulation for Indian Roads using Virtual Reality to enhance Effective Training and Risk Avoidance

Virtual Reality changes the way of learning to drive a car by training in a safer and more realistic environment and providing an engaging training experience. Traditional driving training uses real cars, which can be risky, high-cost, and limited in what they teach. This paper introduces a VR-based car simulator that helps users learn and practice driving in a risk-free environment, exclusively for Indian Road Conditions. This Simulator comes with realistic weather conditions, traffic and unexpected scenarios, which develop the learner’s overall driving skills. This simulation includes motion tracking, haptic feedback, and car physics to make the experience more realistic and train the drivers for multiple driving scenarios. The simulation can be personalised for driving training programs and even train learners for different situations like night driving and highway merging, helping learners gain confidence and improve road safety awareness. Early tests show that VR training helps drivers react faster, stay more focused, and improve their skills compared to traditional methods.
