Plot Synopsis

Host Andrew Younghusband travels around the globe, exploring cities with the worst traffic in the world while discovering the perils and pitfalls of driving in those cities. Instead of riding in a tour bus around each town, Andrew jumps into the driver's seat alongside local cabbies, deliverymen and others who offer him a taste of the city's culture through their windshields and rear-view mirrors. Plus, Andrew meets a local traffic expert to find out why driving there is so perilous, and then he takes the local driving test to see some of the fascinating tasks regular folks must perform to get a license. Finally, Andrew competes in a driving challenge, taking what he's learned from the streets and competing against a local professional driver. In each one-hour episode of DON'T DRIVE HERE, Andrew visits a different city, including: Delhi, India, where he gets a crash course from the country's most fearless taxi driver; Bangkok, Thailand, where he's introduced to local traffic by a Hollywood stuntman; and other international cities, like Mexico City, Manila, Lima, and Ulaan Bataar.
