Saint John Man Named Canada’s Worst Driver

A Saint John man has received the dubious distinction of being the worst driver in Canada.

Brandon Wilkins was named the “winner” of this year’s edition of Canada’s Worst Driver.

It is the second year in a row the reality TV show title has gone to a New Brunswicker.

Wilkins struggles with basic driving skills and experiences major anxiety while behind the wheel.

The 20-year-old had been in 35 collisions during the first 10 months of being a licensed driver.

As promised, Wilkins cut up his driver’s licence during the show’s finale after receiving the title.

The runner-up this year is 21-year-old Alexis Pratola from Thunder Bay, Ont.
