Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a developmental disability that affects both adolescents and adults in the current time. With driving being a staple part of the American lifestyle, it is clear that such disabilities can inhibit the progress for one’s journey of learning to drive a motor vehicle. Relevant research and studies suggest that there is a correlation between an increased number of driving citations and people with ADHD, along with evidence of moderate driving issues within sample groups of people with ADHD. With virtual reality (VR) becoming a principal technology of the modern world, perhaps its uses can extend to benefiting those with developmental disabilities such as ADHD. Through the creation of a driving simulation, users can use VR technology to practice the necessary skills needed to drive, without the risk of physical injury to themselves or others. with the purpose to aid the learning experience of those with ADHD, the simulation can be designed with specific features present to help them maintain focus on the important details needed for practicing safe driving.
