Driving experts react to footage of lorries losing their loads, Californian drivers being distracted by a rocket launch, and a Mini driver in Dorset who tries to undertake on a dual carriageway.

The panel of drivers and experts assess traffic incidents involving illegal road racers on a motorway, heart-stopping near misses, and the dangers of combining drinking with driving.

Cameras reveal what happens when a driver dozes off behind the wheel in Tennessee, and a Texas tornado gives one driver an unforgettable commute.
