What vehicles’ “How’s my driving?” signs REALLY mean

I keep seeing various businesses’ cars and trucks with a sign on the back, asking “How’s my driving?”  They provide a phone number for people to call in order to report bad driving.

This reflects badly on those businesses in 2 ways:

1.  It shows that the company does NOT trust its employees to drive safely, so it calls upon the general public to monitor their behavior.

2.  It shows that the company makes bad hiring decisions. If they hire people who are not competent as drivers, in what other ways are their employees not competent?

Both of these are warning signs that we should NOT do business with those companies.
