This is a non-stop show where
nothing is paced and there’s a dramatic moment at every second which is over-emphasised
by the show’s sound effects. It’s great to see the drivers out on real roads;
though you have to measure the realness of the show when you ask them to parallel
park between two parked cars. There’s also no sense of contestants learning
from their trials or evidence of them trying to improve; it’s simply an idiom
of watching bad drivers knowing that they will crash. It’s weird that the
people who nominate the contestants suddenly decide that they want to help them;
though the motivator of winning a holiday might have something to do with it. The
contestants had some real character, but the presenters just seemed too fake
and strict and didn’t really offer an opinion. But then again, they have to be
if they get to wreck one of their contestants’ car at the end of each episode.
