A Swedish RealityShow which focuses on rehabilitating the worst drivers in Sweden, as nominated by their friends and family members. The object of the show is essentially to learn enough about proper driving in order to "graduate" from rehab, done in the form of different challenges meant to build specific driving skills. In other words, you ''don't'' want to move on to the next round. The "winner" (or should we say ''loser'') in the end is crowned the titular "worst driver", and often receives an equally crappy looking trophy.

* BadassDriver: Some of the contestants think they're this--which is why they are mentioned under DrivesLikeCrazy. Some of the judges '''are''' this, including:
** Janette XXX Hindenburg: Retired rally driver
** Patrik "Budda" XXX
** XXX: Retired cop
* CaptainCrash: The drivers sent to rehab for recklessness or obliviousness tend to be this. A number of them have wrecked so many cars that they've lost count.
* CaptainOblivious[=/=]CloudCuckoolander[=/=]TheDitz: Some of the contestants are ''shockingly'' clueless. These are arguably the scariest type of bad driver. With some, you wonder if they're even aware they're driving.
* CharacterDevelopment: Many of the drivers try to iron out their flaws.
* CheatersNeverProsper: Well, it is kinda hard to get away with anything when it's all being recorded from multiple angles.
* ChronicallyCrashedCar: Every single car ON the show, and most that the drivers have used as well.
* ClipShow: The ending of each episode is a brief summary of the episode as the judges and Adam discuss the week and decide on the best and the worst of the week.

* DumbBlonde: There has been a few.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Invoked. You have to work at improving to graduate.
* EpicFail: We might need a subpage for this...
* FailedASpotCheck: For some of the bad drivers, not seeing what's going on around them makes them terrible drivers. What's worse, it tends to show up during the public drives since that's where the drivers have to be the most attentive. Some of them seem to border on CaptainOblivious.
* GeniusDitz: Just because you are smart doesn't mean you can drive.
* LethallyStupid: The contestants. Their goal is to become less dangerous.
* MedalOfDishonor: The title "Sweden's Worst Driver" and the crappy trophy the "winner" gets at the end.
* NervousWreck: These show up a ''lot''. They're just as scary as road ragers and ditzes.
* NonGameplayElimination: Life happens.
* OnceASeason: Several exercises recur every year.
* OnTheNext: Shown while the credits play in the bottom of the screen.
* ParkingProblems: Poor drivers, poor at parking.
* ParallelParking:
* PointAndLaughShow: It's all fun and games until you realize that these people could be on the same road as you.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Some participants get so emotional during the exercises that they just quit.
* StopHelpingMe: {{In-universe}}. Sometimes, a bad driver's biggest problem is the ''codriver'', who must learn this lesson.
* StunnedSilence: The judges will sometimes will just stare speechless at the screen when the drivers do something completely stupid or show that they learned nothing from a recent lesson.
* TearsOfFear: Several drivers are absolutely ''terrified'' of driving, to the point where a few broke down and cried.
* ThatPoorCar: Except we actually see what happens to them.
* TooDumbToLive: The lack of skill these drivers have does indeed pose a risk to life and limb.
* WatchThePaintJob: Paint job? Try worrying about the car falling into pieces!
* WiperStart: It happens.
* YourOtherLeft: Some participants just never managed to learn the difference.
