Training Session Report

Detailed Analysis

1. Speed management was a primary concern throughout the session. Four speed limit violations were recorded, with a peak speed of 71 km/h on an urban corridor known for mixed traffic density and pedestrian crossings. This pattern indicates insufficient adaptation to the dynamic road conditions characteristic of the VDN and Patte d'Oie interchange.
2. A red light violation was recorded during the simulation, representing a critical failure in traffic signal compliance. Combined with the failure to stop at a crosswalk (a missed step), this suggests a systemic gap in intersection awareness and priority-of-way decision-making.
3. One vehicle collision occurred during the session. Given the urban route context and the use of a Mercedes Sprinter passenger van — a high-responsibility vehicle — this event constitutes a critical error with direct implications for passenger and third-party safety.
4. The driver operated the vehicle without a fastened seatbelt for 45 seconds following session start, corroborated by the missed step 'seatbelt_not_fastened_at_start.' This reflects a failure in pre-departure safety checks and non-compliance with mandatory PPE/SOP standards, further evidenced by 1 PPE violation and 5 SOP violations recorded.
5. Response time averaged 2,800 ms, which is above optimal thresholds for urban driving scenarios. This elevated latency likely contributed to the 3 harsh braking events and the inability to react appropriately at the crosswalk and red light situations.

Tips for Improvement

• Adopt a consistent pre-departure checklist habit: always fasten the seatbelt and verify vehicle readiness before initiating movement, in strict alignment with fleet SOP requirements.
• Apply the 'scan-anticipate-act' technique at all intersections — actively scan for signal status, pedestrian presence, and crossing zones at least 50 metres in advance to reduce reaction time and prevent violations.
• Maintain speed discipline by referencing posted limits continuously, particularly on high-flow corridors such as the VDN. Use engine braking and progressive deceleration rather than relying on harsh braking to manage speed transitions.
• In Triple Screen Mode, practice distributing visual attention evenly across all three fields of view to detect lateral hazards earlier, which directly supports collision avoidance when operating a wide-body vehicle like the Sprinter.
• Review and internalize all applicable SOPs before the next simulation attempt, with particular focus on crosswalk stop obligations, signal compliance, and unsecured-load or passenger-safety protocols relevant to passenger van operations.
