Yeah, I was really hoping for the show to be retooled and the result to be more sensible, but the car rollover was awful. I can't believe they even aired it, let alone made it the season opener. Neither final test worked for its purpose. In neither case was the car going to roll over on its own, and in the case of the stabilizer arms, the arms didn't even deploy.
In both cases, why not test them already deployed? In both cases, the devices were totally impractical anyway; they would have added hundreds of pounds of extra weight to the vehicle. The obvious solution is to make the road safer, thereby saving all cars from tumbling over at zero cost to individual car owners.
This episode was another total letdown. Even the presenters seemed depressed, like they already knew the show was cancelled.
