The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for identifying a person as a driver of a vehicle prior to entering the vehicle. The method comprises: receiving a driver identifier from a mobile device, such as a key fob or smart phone, the driver identifier determined from a gait analysis, such as when a person walks towards the vehicle; adjusting vehicle settings, such as a steering column, seat position, stereo and climate control, to stored preferences for the driver identifier; using a sensor at the vehicle to confirm the driver identifier by sensing biometric data of the person; and sending the confirmed driver identifier to the mobile device. The method may also comprise receiving a probability from the mobile device, said probability indicating a likelihood that the mobile device correctly matched the person to the driver identifier. When the probability is below a certain threshold the preferences may not be altered until the biometric data confirms the driver identity. By sending the confirmed driver identifier to the mobile device it may predict the identity of the driver to a higher probability in the future.
