Would it work if I said, "in order to be a taxi driver, you have to be a good sighter? )

It would be correct to say "You have to have good eyesight." It would not be correct to say "You have to be a good sighter." To my knowledge at least, no such word exists.
One might, however, say "To be a taxi driver one must be a good spotter." This term specifically means one who is trained to look for something. As an example, in boating the person who watches the skier is called the spotter.
I hope this helps
