When [Cardi B](http://time.com/5438809/nicki-minaj-cardi-b-feud/) jumped in a car with James Corden to record her episode of the Late Late Show host’s viral hit segment [Carpool Karaoke](http://www.thedrive.com/news/21715/let-it-be-james-corden-breaks-down-with-a-beatle-in-latest-carpool-karaoke-episode), Corden was probably thinking most about making sure he had prepped enough to match the [_Invasion of Privacy_](http://time.com/5455075/best-albums-2018/) rapper line for line on her chart-topping, tongue-twisting songs like “Bodak Yellow” and “I Like It.”

But Corden was in for a surprise when he decided to put Cardi behind the wheel for a driving lesson, as a preview for Monday’s episode shows. The singer may make spitting rhymes look easy, but she’s somewhat less comfortable when it comes to using a steering wheel.

“I hit something!” she admits after the video shows her backing up into some flags in a parking lot. “You think?” Corden responds drily.

Cardi also shouts out some advice to kids at a playground as they drive by: “Stay in school! Listen to your mom! Or you won’t be getting no Christmas gifts!” she recommends. (She is a new mom herself, having [given birth](http://time.com/5373093/cardi-b-vmas-2/) to baby Kulture, her daughter with Migos rapper Offset, in July.) Since putting out her debut album in the spring and giving birth in the summer, Cardi has also released a single this fall, “Money,” and made select performance appearances.
