yes

it's when you are driving someone around and that person being a medic or a support  that has left medic or ammo pack behind collects a point then you get a driver ability point.

it has nothing to do with your driving skills

I'm pretty sure you can also get it if someone in your vehicle kills somebody, such as when you are flying the blackhawk or riding in an APC.

No, If they kill someone it is a driver kill assist. It goes under the same stat as a driver ability point but is not the same thing. Really not important unless you want the:

Crew Specialist Ribbon
  • IAR: 1 Driver Special Ability Point
  • IAR: 20 Driver Kill Assists
  • IAR: 10 kills
Their are 4 ways you can get a driver ability point. First you MUST be the pilot/driver, and your gunner/passenger gets:
  • A heal point, Either from a dropped med pack which someone runs over, or by him healing you and/or other people in or around the vehicle.
  • A resupply point, Either from a dropped ammo pack which someone runs over, or by him resupplying you and/or other people in or around the vehicle.
  • A repair Point, Either repairing the vehicle you are in, ie black hawk/transport etc. Or by repairing commander assets or other vehicles you drive/fly close to.
  • Destroying a commander asset (UAV/Scan/Artillery). Either from 3 TV missiles from a chopper, 1 rocket from a bomber, Or any other method when they are riding in your transport.
You get a driver Kill assist when:
  • You are a pilot and anyone of your gunners/passengers gets a kill, apart from 'road kills' (Eg. with the guns on the vehicle, by shooting out with kit weapons, by grenades or C4/AT mines/claymores, but not when they blow up a vehicle and the exploding vehicle kills someone).
  • You are the passenger/gunner and your pilot gets a kill, which is not a 'road kill'.


You get a Kill Damage Assist, when you are a passenger/gunner of a vehicle and a different gunner gets a kill with the the vehicles guns.

You get one for example your in a car and you are the driver and somebody heals or gives ammo to another teammate or somebody repairs your car while your the driver. Also in your stats a Driver Kill Assist count as the same thing for example you are the pilot of a chopper and your gunner kills somebody.

Exactly, which is why getting Driver Kill Assists is a much more efficient way of getting the Medal of Valor.

Do driver special ability points count if you're the driver/pilot of the vehicle and you resupply or repair another teammate's vehicle? Without anyone else being in your own vehicle.

No.... you would just get a resupply/repair point.

Yep, whenever I go pub Sharqi with vehicles me and my friend Legend_Anubis get the chopper I'll pilot and end the round with 50+ driver points.

I'm not sure about that. I remember a round where my gunner destroyed the commander assets with the TV a couple of times and I wasn't getting anything. He said via Teamspeak, he got the points for destroying the assets, but I think there wheren't any driver special ability points for me...
