Canada's Worst Driver 2 is the second season of Canada's Worst Driver, a Discovery Channel Canada television series which seeks to improve the driving skills of eight selected contestants, who are also trying to avoid being named the show's eponymous and dubious title. In this series, eight contestants and their nominators arrive at the Driver Rehabilitation Centre, located on the grounds of CFB Borden, where the contestants' keys are confiscated. Over the course of several weeks, the contestants take on challenges designed to improve their driving skills. Starting with the second episode and at the end of each subsequent episode thereafter, the most improved driver, as determined by host Andrew Younghusband and a panel of judges, may choose to graduate a contestant, in which case the contestant is no longer considered to be in the running for Canada's Worst Driver. This continues until three contestants remain, where one final challenge will determine who among them is Canada's Worst Driver.
Unlike the previous season, which focused on winter driving conditions, this season focuses on summer driving skills. Also, the Driver Rehabilitation Program is one week shorter, guaranteeing that at least three contestants remain in the final episode (in the first season, three contestants were in the final episode after no one graduated in one episode).
Returning from the first season is head instructor Scott Marshall of Young Drivers of Canada, the driving school sponsoring the Driver Rehabilitation Program and Canada's Worst Driver. Joining him are the following three judges:
The eight contestants for this edition of Canada's Worst Driver are:
In deliberation, the judges are split between Matt, Shannon and Jodie. In end, Matt is the first graduate as it's clear that without being distracted, he's a better driver. Andrew however makes Matt promise to never drive distracted ever again, and gives him a Bluetooth headset as a parting gift after Matt promises.
Colin's behavior to Michael is brought up by a miffed Andrew, but Colin just brushes it off believing he deserved that spot as a reward for helping Jodi. Between challenges, more of Colin's behavior is revealed. Since the beginning of the show, Colin has revealed that he uses his student card to get out of more tickets than he should have gotten (the total Colin said was 30) since he's a police foundations student. Also, despite studying to become a police officer, he says "I don't think cops are the smartest people out there". This infuriates Sgt. Cam, who sends Colin's home police service an e-mail containing Colin's quote above, and pictures of his vehicle.
