Your driver will be responsible for your family's safety, often including school runs and late-night pickups. A short, structured interview helps you choose with confidence.
1. Do you have a valid driving licence?
Ask to see the original licence and check that it is current and covers the type of vehicle you own. Keep a copy along with their CNIC.
2. How many years have you driven professionally?
Experience with family driving is different from driving a taxi or delivery vehicle. Ask about previous employers and the kind of driving they did.
3. Which areas of the city do you know well?
A driver who knows your routes — school, office, market, hospital — will save time and avoid stress.
4. Can you drive both manual and automatic cars?
If you have more than one vehicle, make sure they are comfortable with each one.
5. How do you handle basic car care?
A good driver checks tyre pressure, oil and water, keeps the car clean and tells you when a service is due.
6. What timings can you work?
Agree start and finish times, days off, and how overtime for late evenings or long trips will be handled.
7. Can I speak to a previous employer?
A quick call to a former employer is one of the most useful checks you can make.
A final tip
Before confirming, take a short test drive together on your usual route. You'll quickly see how calmly and carefully they drive.
