Barrier-free Driving Simulator Development and Quality Barrier-free Driving Training Programme
Using a driving simulator to train barrier-free taxi drivers
The venture aims to develop a barrier-free driving simulator and use it to train professional barrier-free taxi drivers. The simulator will simulate the driving situations of carrying wheelchair users and track the driver’s performance. The programme includes developing the simulator and training trainees from marginalised groups to become professional barrier-free taxi drivers. It will provide job opportunities for marginalised groups and help improve the quality of barrier-free transportation services in Hong Kong.
