  1. Driver Training Challenges for the 21st Century Presented by SKIDCAR SYSTEM INC

  2. Technology and Digital Natives Both are challenging our current methods of delivering effective training

  3. New Challenges…New Paradigm A Paradigm Shift is a change from one way of thinking to another. It's a revolution, a transformation, a metamorphosis. A paradigm shift does not happen on its own or by accident, but rather it is driven by agents of change.

  4. How will ESC Change our Approach to Training? Technology in the 21st Century

  5. What is Electronic Stability Control? Sensors throughout the vehicle determine what the driver wants (INPUT) Additional sensors determine the actual state of the vehicle (RESPONSE) A control algorithm compares input to response and decides (when necessary) to apply brakes and/or reduce throttle

  6. What is Electronic Stability Control? • Sensors used in ESC Systems: • Steering angle / input • Throttle percentage • Wheel speed • Yaw rate • Roll rate • Lateral acceleration • Longitudinal acceleration

  7. Effect of ESC on Front Wheel Skid Intended Path Intended Path Brake pressure applied to inside wheels to reduce front skid Without ESC With ESC

  8. Effect of ESC on Rear Wheel Skid Brake pressure applied to outside wheels to reduce rear skid Without ESC With ESC

  9. Learning to Use ESC “The Oregon Experience” Using four current law enforcement vehicles, a simple lane change exercise was utilized to find the point where ESC began to intervene in the driving process

  10. Learning to Use ESC The “Oregon Experience” Test: Vehicles Used: 2009 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor (NO ESC) 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe (ESC) 2009 Dodge Charger (ESC) 2008 Chevrolet Impala (ESC) The Exercise: Offset vehicle one lane (left or right) in space of 50’ and then return to the original lane of travel.

  11. Learning to Use ESC 50’ 50’

  12. Learning to Use ESC The Results: Each of the vehicles completed the exercise successfully at speeds of 35 mph, 40 mph, 45 mph, 50 mph, and 55 mph None of the vehicles equipped with ESC had any intervention of technology until speeds of 45 mph were reached At speeds greater than 45 mph, vehicles equipped with ESC were operated successfully without ESC intrusion when vehicle was operated efficiently with regard to grip (no jerking, stomping, jabbing, etc)

  13. Vehicle Dynamics at 45 mph

  31. Just what is a “Digital Native”? Term used to describe a person born into a world where digital technology is already available Sometimes referred to as “Generation Z” Steve Westerberg, The Maverick Group LLC 2010

  41. Digital Immigrant Digital Native Systems Processes Formulas Complex Data Hours on end of study, introspection, trial and error I will Google it if I need to know it… Steve Westerberg, The Maverick Group LLC 2010

  42. Conceptual Learning • There may be more ways to do something – just because a student doesn’t do it your way may not mean it is inherently wrong… • Think before you open your mouth… Steve Westerberg, The Maverick Group LLC 2010

  43. Conceptual Learning • Ask open-ended questions • Build a bridge between the cognitive and the experience • Perhaps between the simulated world and reality Hold the student accountable Steve Westerberg, The Maverick Group LLC 2010

  44. Failing Forward • More important to learn concept than to master the skill • Requires flexible instructors that listen first • “Spin” is important Steve Westerberg, The Maverick Group LLC 2010

  45. Redefine Performance in Your Terms • Once you have recognized potential experiences… • Define expectations • Define parameters of growth • Define success • Define failure Don’t let them leave with their own definitions Steve Westerberg, The Maverick Group LLC 2010

  46. The SKIDCAR SYSTEM ™ PARADIGM

  47. The SkidCar System Paradigm 1. ESP is here to stay • When ABS became standard technology we still held on to old patterns, ideas, and philosophies • Fleets will have mixed technologies within a year or two • We have to adapt our training • We need to educate our drivers on both systems • The SkidCar System is a perfect platform to address both technologies and to bring cognitive learning to life SkidCar System Inc – Instructor Recertification

  48. The SkidCar System Paradigm 2. Our in-car training can be very specific Historically we have used a single course – maybe a figure eight or road course and taught several concepts all at one time We can (and should) utilize the SkidCar to demonstrate very specific information and concepts SkidCar System Inc – Instructor Recertification

  49. The SkidCar System Paradigm 3. Our in-car coaching can improve • Learning to ask open-ended questions about the results of given exercises and results is likely to produce drivers with a better grasp of the actual underlying concepts • What did you just feel? • Where were your hands? • Why did the weight go forward? • What did you see? • Or • “You just jerked the wheel and caused the front to skid” SkidCar System Inc – Instructor Recertification

  50. The SkidCar System Paradigm 4. In summary… It’s about Grip, not Slip The actual physics of grip (while nice to know) are not as critical to drivers today – the technologies of ABS and ESP can do the processes faster and more accurately Driver training courses and exercises should address strategies of managing and maintaining grip Skids, slides, and small losses of grip are viable methods of inculcating the results of being technically correct (or incorrect) with regard to grip SkidCar System Inc – Instructor Recertification
