Calling All Crazy Drivers
Oct. 6 2009, Published 10:20 a.m. ET
Finally, those points on your record will actually count for something: America's Worst Driver a forthcoming Travel Channel series that will redefine the term "crash TV," pits awful drivers against one another through a gauntlet of high-impact, death-defying stunts.
The would-be Evil Knievels will have to conquer quests such as a giant teeter totter, skid car races, hazard challenges, a water tank car and others, to advance in the competition. There's quite the swerve though, as winning teams are eliminated. The last team standing -- composed of the worst of the worst -- gets an electric bike and has their competition car eaten by a giant car crusher called Robosauraus.
Contestants were picked at local competitions from the country's eight cities with the worst drivers -- Los Angeles, Seattle, Dallas, Chicago, Miami, San Francisco, New York City and Boston.
The Finale took place in Los Angeles on Friday, Oct. 2 and Sunday, Oct. 4 at Hollywood Park, located at 1050 South Prairie Avenue, Inglewood, California.
Streets of America: The Search for America’s Worst Driver premieres on Travel Channel, Sunday, March 1420at 10/9c.
