I'm not sure this is the effective way to think about driving: determining whether your drivers are "good" uses, I think, a holistic evaluation, as opposed to a test of specific skills.

That said, you can make many "ATs" out of effective use of code. If you program certain features to help your drive team deal with stressful or careful situations easily, then your drive team will love you. A simple Drive Straight button, or a forward/backward toggler, is very useful.
