Understood, but that can be easier said than done, depending on the size and type of the vehicle.
Maybe we need to be looking at the whole process and have a designated spotter on retrieval teams whose sole duty is to communicate with the driver? I know it may not be workable at smaller events, but then neither is the two by two power/foam formation but we still teach it as best practice where possible. Thoughts?
