Summary The first three challenges the nominees face this year are annual ones. The first is the head-to-head reversing challenge. What makes the challenge interesting this year is that many of the newer drivers in particular rely heavily on the use of back-up cameras in their own cars, and have never learned to reverse without one. Although the cars they will be driving in the challenge are equipped with such operable cameras, the nominees are given a lesson on proper reversing without cameras by Tim, this method the one which they are supposed to use in the challenge, especially as the back-up cameras do not take into account front end swing of a car in turns. Some may revert to old habits in using the functioning cameras. The second is riding the rails challenge, which tests if the drivers know where their wheels are when they are driving. The course this year is short and must be done both driving forward and in reverse. And the third is the shoulder check challenge, where the drivers are required to do both right and left shoulder checks to know which is the safe lane in which to merge. Philippe provides lessons to the nominees in the basics of shoulder checking before the challenge, the lesson including the concept of a blind spot which some drivers either did not ever know or understand. In the expert panel deliberation on how if anyone will graduate after these three challenges, they come to the true question mark of Joe, who they know they can teach little in actual driving skills. To graduate, he has to convince them that his attitude will change once back on public roads, especially with regard to his speeding. Andrew mentions another option which is to have Joe leave without graduating, especially if the panel believes his recklessness on the road is one they cannot rehabilitate.
