Canada's Worst Driver 4 - Contestants

Contestants

  • Teagan Cramer, 18, from Edmonton, Alberta, despite being an excellent skateboarder, is a young and nervous driver who tries to compensate by jerking the steering wheel back and forth (termed the "wobble"). However, his dangerous driving is causing him trouble in meeting people of the opposite sex. The youngest nominee in the history of the series, he is nominated by his buddy, Mat Smith. He drives a black 1988 Ford Ranger.
  • Curt Higham, 51, from New Westminster, British Columbia, has been in 46 accidents through his driving career. Part of this may be because he is so distracted, often he does not watch the road. He was originally nominated by his husband of 31 years Vance McFadyen for Canada's Worst Driver 3, but it was only this year that he was accepted at rehab. In fact, Vance had refused to allow Curt to drive for over three years due to his driving record. He drives a green Ford F-150.
  • Donna Hicks, 61, from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, is a fearless driver – so much so she refuses to stop at stop signs or red lights; yet simple driving tasks, such as reversing, seem to elude her. She even sometimes drinks and drives, which she claims happens "only when I play bingo"; i.e. when she drives home from the bingo hall. She is nominated by her son Claude Vinneau, who is worried for his safety, her safety, and the safety of her grandchildren. She drives a blue Dodge Spirit.
  • Lindsay Kloss, 23, from Kelowna, British Columbia, is an accident-prone and extremely distracted driver, claiming to hit something every few weeks and knowing all of Kelowna's tow truck drivers on a personal basis. On one occasion, she managed to hit the gas meter of her fiancé's home. Her driving was so bad that three people nominated her, though fiancé TJ Papp will be the only one accompanying her through rehab. She drives a white 1991 Ford Taurus.
  • Ashley van Ham, 21, from Medicine Hat, Alberta, is a road raging and easily distracted driver (her favourite feature on her car is a plug to plug in a curling iron, ostensibly to curl her hair while driving), having cost her husband and nominator Bryan van Ham over $15,000 in vehicle repairs. Ashley enters rehab in order to protect their infant son, Diesel, and is especially motivated to graduate early in order to not miss his first birthday. She drives a black Ford F-350 and a Mitsubishi Endeavor.
  • Emily Wang, 33, from Calgary, Alberta, is an inexperienced and distracted driver, struggling with something as simple as moving a car forward. This may be because her driving skills were a result of having only 10 hours of training in obtaining her licence, and English is not her first language (having immigrated from China only four years ago). She is nominated by her fiancé (at the time of taping – they are married by the time the show aired), Scott Nicholson. She drives a green Chevrolet Cavalier.
  • Ken Westwood, 59, from Mission, British Columbia, is a traveling salesman who has a habit of tailgating & speeding, and is unapologetic about his ruthless behaviour on the road. He is nominated by buddy John Levitt, who is worried that his antics may cost him his licence and his way of living. He drives a silver Kia Rio.
  • Amy-Lee Wisniewski, 30, from Bethune, Saskatchewan, is a nervous wreck behind the wheel, stemming from a lack of confidence in driving. Because of this, she refuses to drive to Regina, even though her business depends on a weekly commute there. She is nominated by her husband Bob Wisniewski, a truck driver. She drives a white Pontiac Sunbird.
