How’s my driving?

Ever seen this written on the vehicle in front of you?

I sometimes wonder what it’d take to make me dial the number. Perhaps if I saw them help an elderly person perform a three-point turn (good). Or if they almost caused an accident (bad). Either way, it provides:

  • Opportunity: Great drivers want this. The ability to be recognized for being great at their craft.
  • Accountability: Great drivers want this, too. The ability to have “the road” as their accountability partner.

I only hope these drivers belong to teams that turn those calls into what-based, unselfish feedback, rather than a mere disciplinary system.

Whatever our team does, “the road” can provide invaluable feedback to help us perfect our work. We need only ask.
