Adjusting the traffic simulation test in driving tests

Recently, voters in Long Thanh district, Dong Nai reported that the simulation test using software provided by the Department of Roads applied to the driving training program for class B1, B2, C, D, E, F cars... is inappropriate and does not accurately assess the reality of driving on the road.

According to voters, the above regulation causes confusion for test takers and wastes a lot of people's time and money. Voters request the Ministry of Transport to abolish the organization of traffic simulation tests in driving tests.

Regarding this issue, the Ministry of Transport said that it has directed the Roads Department to preside over and coordinate with units to build software to adjust and update some situations to suit reality, and adjust the recognition time so that learners can easily absorb and handle them. Recently, the Roads Department has actively coordinated with relevant agencies to adjust and update software to simulate traffic situations.

The Department of Roads has adjusted the traffic simulation test in driving tests.

Specifically, the Department coordinated with a number of experts to re-graphicalize a number of situations with blurry, low-resolution images to improve image quality, helping learners to observe and identify situations more easily; adding and displaying the name of each situation for learners to recognize....

In addition, the Road Administration also adjusted the simulation software to extend the scoring time (from 5 points to 0 points) to help learners have more time to recognize and operate the computer keyboard.

At the same time, at the beginning of this year, the Department of Roads instructed the Departments of Transport to access the website www.gplx.gov.vn to download the updated software to simulate traffic situations and officially implement it nationwide from February 15. "Currently, the rate of passing the test content simulating traffic situations is over 80%..." - said the Ministry of Transport.

According to the representative of the Road Administration, in 2018, the Ministry of Transport required testing centers to build tunnels, bridges, and ferries to train and test car drivers. However, driving training centers cannot do it and put simulation cabins into practice like the aviation and railway industries to train and test pilots and train drivers.

“In reality, each student has 3 hours of practice in the cabin, but they are trained in skills and reflexes in conditions of terrain, road, weather, traffic conditions and different traffic situations to improve skills to ensure traffic safety…” - said a representative of the Department of Roads.
