* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: During the Season Five water-tank challenge:
{{quote|
'''A thoroughly ''soaked'' Mike Butt:''' I've never been on this end of a wet T-Shirt Contest! }}
* [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]: Some of the drivers are nominated by their verbally abusive spouses. The hosts will point out to them how much of a detriment they are to their driving spouses, and they actually turn around their own behaviors. Sometimes, the epiphany is a [[Tear Jerker]]: one verbally abusive spouse (considered the worst they'd had on the show) went on a drive with the host with his own verbal abuse being played back at him during the drive. The man was absolutely crushed to realize how bad he was and made a conscious effort to change. His wife's driving performance (to say nothing of their relationship) improved drastically.
Line 9:
*** This doubles as a [[Tear Jerker]] because when they finished they had to have a conversation with Aaron (who, six years prior, was nearly killed by a distracted driver) - in said conversation they had to look Aaron in the eye and promise to never drive distracted again. Everybody cried.
* [[Tear Jerker]]: What happens to the cars... [[Broken Treasure|Just... what happens to the cars]].
* [[What an Idiot!]]: Two contestants in two seperate seasons (same guys under [[Redemption Rejection]]) have stated low opinions of police officers, as well as having boasted about very illegal acts (Scott drove under someone else's name while under ''house arrest''). Look at the former occupation of [[The Big Guy]]. He still carries a badge. He has an obligation to report such confessions to the police where these things happen. Yes, he ''will'' fulfill that obligation. Oh, and yes, the judges ''will'' question the intelligence of anyone who boasts about such things on ''live TV''.
** Then-Sergeant Cam Woolley also called Colin from Season Two an idiot, due to his driving.
*** At one point, after deliberately failing a challenge and shattering the car's window in the process, Colin bragged about his actions to a friend. By cell phone. Where at least three other contestants heard him very clearly. Sgt. Wooley was not the only one on that show who considered Colin an idiot.
