Driving instructors probably don't get the credit they deserve. Putting aside their anal-retentive attention to detail, these individuals also make a living crawling into vehicles helmed by unproven drivers -- many of them inexperienced teenage maniacs -- which can't be anything less than terrifying.
So a professional driver named Leona Chin decided to have some fun with that. Chin is a professional driver with experience in rally cars, go-carts, autocross, drifting and other feats of extreme driving. She teamed up with Maxman.tv and a local driving school to haze some new instructors on their first day at work.
