Donna gaped as the Doctor jumped over the railing into the small car, but didn't have time to question it as she was dragged in as well. The Cangonite that had challenged the Doctor to getting through the ride to the other side of the room was already in a car and trying to do so. Her knees rose up to her chest, and his didn't fit much better. The fancy coat he wore was bunched up on the seat, his suit wrinkled where he was sitting on it.
"This isn't going to work!" Donna cried as the Doctor made a particularly sharp turn.
"Yes, it is!" he replied, dodging another car, knowing the need for stopping any conflicts that might arise between them an the angry aliens. "The Cangonites are very competitive. If we win, they'll leave us alone."
"And if we lose?' Donna wondered, looking behind them to see if the Cangonite was anywhere near.
"We won't have time to cry about it," the implications of the answer made Donna shudder, and only the Doctor's presence stopped her from doing anything about it.
Instead, she hung on tighter to the pole in the back of the small car and let the Doctor bump their way to victory, as the clown on the front of the car smiled joyfully.
Bumper car rides are a classic amusement park ride. Personally, I think that even if he wasn't challenged to go on them by a possibly homicidal alien, the Doctor would have ridden them.
