Explaining how a director wanted her to drive a car for a movie, she explained what happened the first time, saying: "I'm going up the hill, and I mess up the thing, and I stall and I start rolling back down the hill, and there's a Range Rover behind me. The instructor freaks out and does the emergency brakes. I went, 'OK, well that's done.'"
Carey went on to say that she believe she's a "great driver" she just doesn't perform well in the "test environment".
