Automated Driving Track: A New-Age Tool to test Driving Skills

Indians are one of the world's "worst" drivers! - No, this is not a frustrated statement nor it is something that I am fabricating - Surveys and studies conducted by world renowned agencies have come up with a shocking result; India tops the chart when it comes to fatal road accidents.

The Indian drivers have become more reckless and careless and they hardly care about the traffic rules. And to curb this serious problem and bring out the "best drivers" on the roads, RTO (Regional Transport Office) have introduced automated Driving tracks.

Earlier to get the driver's license the applicants had to pass through a driving test; where they had to demonstrate making an '8 pattern'  and it was be done by any RTO personnel. Now, taking a cue from the developed nations and to make an effort to bring the cases of road accidents, this innovation has been at present introduced in few Indian cities.

It is nothing, but a state-of-the-art tool which helps the RTO personnel to judge the driving ability of the applicant. At present only activated in few major cities and centers, this path-breaking implementation is seen as a major step towards countering the terrible traffic sense and control the rising number of fatal accidents.

Earlier the applicant driver used to give a driving test, with a RTO personnel supervising and preceding over the test. Well, this type of testing method sometimes results in erroneous or biased observation (after all, it is observed by a 'human' and humans are prone to make mistakes and tend to form a biased attitude).  But, this won't be the case anymore!

With this innovative and advanced tool it becomes a matter of few minutes – The would-be drivers have to pass through a graphical stimulator. And mind well, it is not as simple as making an '8 riding' pattern!
The entire track is fitted with sensors which notes any mistakes and even notes it down. Hence, the final result will almost be error-free and unprejudiced.

In short, the driving skills are evaluated exceptionally well. Now, do you think this is a tough tool, which cannot be handled or used by a layman. No, this is not entirely correct – It is designed in a manner that it is extremely easy to use, so can anyone; be it a graduate or an illiterate anyone can use it without any difficulties. (It will not affect the results at all).   Moreover, it will even point out the reckless drivers and hence no license is issued to them.
