Tommy is a bit of a boy racer, while Chantelle is a prime candidate for anger management.

Young drivers take to the road, unaware that their parents are watching every manoeuvre. Tommy is a boy racer, while Chantelle could use some anger management.

Series in which young drivers take to the road in the family car, unaware that their parents are watching every manoeuvre through state-of-the-art cameras placed in the cars.

We meet Tommy, who thinks he can give Lewis Hamilton a run for his money and Chantelle, a prime candidate for anger management. 

Tommy's behaviour both in and out of the car is a cause for concern for his parents as he inflates condoms, snogs his way round clubs and even gets breathalysed. But seeing him close up also makes Tommy's dad Ajay rethink his relationship with his son and vow to be a better father.

Chantelle's road rage is something to be seen, and heard, but if you add her addiction to driving using her phone and not using her hands to steer you've got a heady mix of screaming and near misses - uncomfortable viewing for dad, Mike. Can Chantelle curb her anger and become a better driver? 

Both these barely legal drivers go on their very own journeys - the question is do they deserve their own car or should they go back to driving school?
