I think the word you are looking for is, "confidence'.
Some drivers inspire confidence right from the off, others do not.
Aren't you all talking about S #5?
Not necessarily. I think that some drivers just put their passengers at ease while others make them feel, not exactly concerned, but maybe slightly apprehensive. It's not necessarily the polish or the sparkle that's either there or missing but that there is an almost indescribable something that garners trust. Maybe it's an instant recognition of competence?
