Dont make it so complicated and black and white.
I'm a taxi driver on the motorway with a passenger and I get an oil level low warning and I decide to to carry on to the next service station. On checking it is noted that I do in fact need a litre of oil. No drama.
A colleague of mine has the same warning the next day but decides to pull over onto the hard shoulder and call out the AA for a tow to the service station.He also needs a litre of oil. No drama.
Who out of our taxi driving chums is the most/least correct?
Same end result? Totally different decisions were made?
What is the perceived danger to the passenger? Is it the same for each scenario?
Now both scenarios could have had a different result.
What if the first taxi had blown its engine?
What if the advisory was false?
Maybe the AA van breaks down towing our friend!?
So many imponderables.
Command decisions are a healthy mixture of technical knowledge,experience,commercial awareness,team input and many more imponderables.
We use the grey matter because most scenarios are not completely black and white
