I would consider a good driver to be aware of their capabilities moreso than anothers perceived rating.
A good driver knows the road rules, knows their car and their ability whilst opperating it. A good driver will also be aware of the fact that there are other people using the road so they will check for traffic, look before changing lanes, remember that they don't want to upset or hinder other drivers, they are courteous.
I would probably be considered an agressive driver. Sometimes cars have two speeds.. top and stop. But I am always courteous and patient with others on the road that don't want to be driving the same way I do. I tend to get irritated by oblivious drivers.
If I were behind you at the left turn, I would have been frustrated or irritated but then I would also stop myself to realise that you were only doing what you felt confident enough to do. I wouldn't have honked.
