Can we tell a person's DISC behavioral style by how they drive? You betcha!
Dominance - already late, I'll eat on the way and call my admin, sorry honey didn't see you there waiting by the bus, glad you saw me coming, through the lights on yellow, merging without signals, oops didn't see you as I try to pass - don't really care if you're mad - back at you buddy with the honk, HELLOOOO! I am riding your bumper -- accelerate, break, accelerate, break...
Influence - sure I have time to drop you off on the way, we will grab coffee for the ride. What a great day, need the sun glasses and great song on the radio. Oops, sorry, weaved a bit dialing my cell -- wave, thanks for watching out for me and share a smile as that lady passes, traffic jam - time for another call to my buddy I haven't talked to in a while, knew we would get moving again in no time...
Steadiness - no I don't want to go the other way regardless if traffic might be delayed a bit, careful as I am backing out - have a great day at school honey, I could have made it - but no big deal, there is another opening I can see a ways down the road, darn will need to make that call once I get to the office, wave - that is ok, go ahead and pull in front of me, I'm not in a rush...
Compliance - traffic delay? How long-10min? I will need to leave 12 minutes earlier or map my new route before leaving, double check I have my planner, seat belt, completely stopping at all signs and lights and checking in all directions and mirrors twice, cruising along at the speed limit and still nervous when passing the trooper. Look, signal, look again and then pull over - both hands on the wheel at the 10 and 2 positions, arrive on time, almost perfect start to the day...
