PatrolSim™ Series 8 Law Enforcement Simulator
The PatrolSim™ Series 8 by Acron Aviation is a purpose-built law enforcement driving simulator designed to meet the demands of police officer training and certification. This advanced system delivers hands-on, scenario-based instruction in a safe, immersive environment—allowing officers to practice pursuit driving, emergency response, and situational judgment without putting lives or vehicles at risk. With accurate vehicle modeling and dynamic response scenarios, PatrolSim™ builds safer, more prepared officers through repetition, feedback, and experience.
Developed to simulate the performance and feel of patrol vehicles, the PatrolSim™ system allows cadets and officers to navigate high-pressure driving situations like PIT maneuvers, urban traffic stops, and high-speed chases. With full control over weather, time of day, and vehicle conditions, instructors can create and customize scenarios that reinforce critical thinking, defensive driving, and split-second decision-making. Whether in an academy setting or used for departmental refreshers, PatrolSim™ delivers consistent training without tying up cruisers or increasing liability.
