The SKIDCAR SYSTEM was developed by Cedergrens Mek in Sweden, a family-owned company made up of some brilliant engineers and overall great people. SKIDCAR SYSTEM INC has been the sole-source distributor for the USA since 1990, and is currently sole-source for all of North America.
SKIDCAR SYSTEM entered the market as the most effective driving program ever created, and even with modern vehicle and technology advancements, that hasn’t changed. Other programs attempt to simulate experiences to develop a driver’s motor skills. But they are missing that legit, seat-of-the-pants feeling in the pit of your stomach when things go wrong and your car is actually going dangerously fast, sideways. SKIDCAR gives you reality, learning, and safety in a way that no other driver training tool can.
Plus, we’re always on the lookout for incredible new tech to take your training program even further, as efficiently as possible for both your trainees and your budget. Check out our other products here: Automated Traffic Scenario Simulator and our Virtual SKIDCAR Trainer.
