Well, although the programme is definitely entertaining, you’ve got to come to the conclusion that it is totally unrealistic and highly staged. Two shows in and a pattern is developing in Channel 5’s Dangerous Drivers’ School<\/a>.<\/p>\n

First of all, you have “Steph”. Her father is a driving instructor (yes, you read that right – and she’s appearing on TV being “trained” by AA instructors). If he <\/strong>can’t fix her serious attitude problem, what chance does a third party have in a single session? And it comes as no surprise to see that she fancies herself like all get out, and her dream car is an Audi that can do 0-60mph in just over 4 seconds. She’s typical Audi material, and chav through and through. Big surprise that the single session “fixed” her.<\/p>\n

Like Lewis last week, Harry is a complete tosser. He is filmed driving at speed for long distances eating McDonalds without his hands on the steering wheel, and using the phone (at the same time as all that). Even on his first session with the instructor, he is eating crisps and taking his hands off the wheel (just for the record, I would have stopped that before it happened – no one is getting food grease on MY <\/strong>steering wheel!).<\/p>\n

Pat is the regulation realistic (almost) one – though someone who can’t drive properly and <\/strong>wants to appear on TV about it is obviously going to be carrying just that little bit<\/em> of extra baggage.<\/p>\n

With the way Harry the Prat was driving (and “Steph”, come to that), Channel 5 should have informed the police instead of trying to cash in on something that puts the lives of others at such great risk. It’s an absolute joke that Channel 5 should aid and abet such criminal behaviour – and since they can’t be, then the whole thing has just got to be a put on show.<\/p>\n

Increasingly, the programme is looking like a stage for people who didn’t get on Big Brother. If anyone does drive like that in real life they deserve to have their licences revoked because of past behaviour.<\/p>\n

If anyone is genuinely like Pat, all they have to do is call an instructor and get some refresher lessons. No need to join Equity to do it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
