You surely will never be Matt LeBlanc's co-passenger after his admission of being "a nightmare back seat driver."

According to the self-confessed car nut, he is world's worst back seat driver as he barks continuous instructions from the passenger seat, reports News.com.au.

"I have to admit I'm not good. I'm like watch out! Why you going so slow? Why do you have the car over here? Don't put the car on that line, put it over here. You're too wide on this corner. Brake! Why you braking so late? You're braking too early. Get on the gas, go, go, go! What are you waiting for? Go around this guy, he's going to slow. I'm just the worst. I wouldn't want to be in the car with me if I wasn't driving," he said.

The 48-year-old actor will very soon be seen in the driver's seat as co-presenter in the latest incarnation of 'Top Gear' along with UK radio star Chris Evans due to premiere next week.

LeBlanc is the first American to host the show in its 39-year history.

While his inclusion might have been a surprise to some, it's a chance for the actor to indulge his lifelong passion for cars.
