Good idea but a driving simulator does not feel like a real car in any aspect. It is basically a dark booth with the movie screen on three sides of you. The controls aren't like a real car, either.
I did a driving test in one of these recently at the U. of Florida as a paid volunteer that tested the reaction time to seniors drinking alcohol vs non-drinking times.
Don't worry, the grad students helping conduct the grant study drove me to and from Gainesville.
