Newspaper: The Times of India Date: 11th February 2016 Edition: New Delhi CRRI Designs Customised Machines Incorporating Indian Road Conditions For years now, regional transport offices in Delhi have been making do with a rudimentary “driving test“ for licence seekers on the nearest road to the RTO.Paucity of space has meant that RTOs don't have a test strip on their premises. All this could change with the customised car driving simulator that the Central Road Research...
