If the contact object has lookup to Driver object I think you can easily right an formula field to pull the details to contact object, I think the formua should be Driver__r.Phone__c . It should be  easy to configure it

Hi VANAPARTHI SRIKANTH,

You can acheive it without code. No code required.

You can use cross-object formula field to reference parent Driver object phone field in child object named "Car"
If relationship is not direct or you are having any problem with that you can use VLOOKUP also.
