After seeing a viewership increase of 27% for viewers 25-54 and 35% for 18-49s during its third season, a fourth run of Canada's Worst Driver will make its debut on Discovery Channel at 10 pm ET/PT on Oct. 27.

Targeting 18-54s, the show follows eight motorists as they struggle through the "Driver Rehabilitation Centre" at an abandoned correctional centre. A panel of judges including CP24's traffic and safety specialist Cam Woolley, formerly a sergeant with the OPP's Ontario Highway Safety Division, will crown the worst driver.

TV history buffs may recall that the reality genre sprang from Britain's docu-soaps, and that one of the original series that helped forge viewers' fascination with car wrecks was BBC's Driving School, wherein assorted dim students never failed to comically mess up.
