Canada's Worst Driver - Season 6 - Lance Morin
28"I'm never gonna get it!...Ever!"
Season 6 harkens back to going with a 'winner' in a similar fashion to that of Season 1's Chris, by going with a driver who ultimately was a result of simply being far too inexperienced; Lance Morin.
Lance is a "fashionista" who dresses very dapper and is very proud of his work, but has only been driving (at the time of this season) for about 4 months due to having just gotten their license 4 months ago at that time. Behind the wheel he's a nervous wreck, often breaking down into tears when unable to properly perform tasks such as parking his car without damaging it, and even getting so anxious that he's prone to having outbursts of needing to vomit. Hell, he could begin hyperventilating even when nothing is around his car in stationary. On top of that? He drove a stick-shift, even though his friend encouraged him NOT to drive a car with one. His nominator and best friend, "Gilles" felt that perhaps bringing him to rehab would gain him the experience and confidence that he needs to improve his driving skills.
At time during his stay in rehab, it initially seemed as if Lance was going to have a very difficult uphill journey, breaking down (including a very notable case when trying to reverse an R.V.) and having several cases of being about ready to vomit, but by the halfway point, it seemed like things were starting to click together and that he'd soon become a graduate. Unfortunately however, the latter half of his run would see a sort of relapse, where not only did his driving skills deteriorated, but so too did his fashion, trading in much of his fancy clothing for a torn undershirt. Ultimately, what did him in was the final drive, where he wasn't able to go far before suffering a severe anxiety attack that left him hyperventilating into a brown bag, to the point he had to be taken to a hospital. This, combined with his feelings that he felt this sort of this behaviour was NOT related to his driving skills, was what gave him the title of "Canada's Worst Driver", in a season where arguably, someone else may have been more deserving due to being a far greater danger.
Yes, it took me a year and a half to get this out, due to a lot of stuff in personal life, but I'm back and ready to get more of these out. Enjoy!
