Possibly The worst car crash TV I've ever seen.

Voice over talking about cars being "In the fast lane"

Caption ! Black ice - "don't break" (sic)

The people commenting making banal comments : "Don't risk it for a biscuit!!

Cringeworthy.

I watched 15 mins and then deleted my recording. Cancelled series link. Almost unwatchable.

Totally unwatchable - turned over after 6 minutes.

Agree.

Terrible production.

Very repetitive with an awful lot of padding, even by Channel 5 standards.

I understand why they need to have the road safety talkers, but why do you need so many of them and why can’t they talk over the footage?

Every time the footage gets interesting, the programme cuts away to show the face of somebody talking about what they are seeing. This is unbelievably frustrating to viewers and makes it unwatchable.

The programme makers must surely know how annoying it is for viewers.

Cut the excess out and make the programme 30 minutes long and save the fees of paying all those commentators.

similar stuff on YouTube is better produced.

Truly dreadful, the producers should be sacked!
