1. A driving simulation system configured to train a driver, the system comprising:
a simulated driver cockpit, including:
simulated vehicle controls;
a display control input; and
at least one video display providing a simulated driving environment to the driver; and
a computerized simulation control module including programming to:
operate a driving simulation through the simulated driver cockpit, the driving simulation including a set of driving rules;
monitor performance of the driver during the driving simulation;
compare the performance of the driver to the set of driving rules;
generate a driving performance score regarding performance of the driver relative to the set of driving rules; and
operating an instructor-led review of the performance of the driver, including:
receiving an input from a driving instructor regarding the performance of the driver relative to the set of driving rules; and
displaying an output to the driver based upon the driving performance score and the input from the driving instructor.
