Knowing someone has been to driving school or seeing that they drive a manual car is a pretty good indicator they'll be a decent driver. But how can you tell who's good when you're already on the road?
Spotting a good driver on the highway can be tough. Just because they've got a nice car doesn't mean they have any clue what they're doing.
There are some clues you can look for, though. The best is probably seeing an M5 badged as a 528i, or any other reverse-ostentation. But this is about as rare as a manual Camry, so we tend to look for cars with the badges removed. If you see a Panamera Turbo with the "Turbo" script removed from the back, that's a good sign the driver bought that car for what it can do rather than what other people will think of him.
What are other ways to tell if you've found a good driver?
