I think we're about close to the same age. I took my Driver training course back in the 80's. We had like 30 sit down cockpit with steering wheel, brakes and everything like a real dashboard minus a 8 track radio. There was a film projector playing on the screen and we were suppose to simulate driving with all kinds of scenerio like ped jumping out of crosswalk, 18 wheeler running red lights and cyclist coming out of nowhere. The cockpit were tie to a control panel that recorded all the mistakes. Back then it was consider high tech stuff.

That stuff I had really taught me a lot. Nowadays, I doubt they have those which I think will be good.
