Canada's Worst Driver 11
''Canada's Worst Driver 11'' was the eleventh season of the Canadian reality TV show ''Canada's Worst Driver,'' which aired on the Discovery Channel.

The focus of this season was on High-Speed Driving. This year, the Driver Rehabilitation Centre is located at the Dunnville Airport in Dunnville, Ontario for the sixth straight season. The initial drive started in Cayuga, Ontario and the final road test occurred in Hamilton, Ontario.
