Time is running out for Top Gear, arguably one of the most popular and enduring auto series on television if we're to believe a recent report. That same report claims the BBC is the only one to blame for it after cutting costs in favor of safety.
 
Series 34 of Top Gear is on an indefinite hiatus, shutting down production halfway after a crash involving one of the three hosts, Freddie Flintoff. The single-vehicle accident took place in December last year, during a test drive in a three-wheeler, at the Dunsfold Aerodrome in Surrey, and its circumstances and aftermath remain shrouded in secrecy. This, despite the fact that so much time has passed since, and the BBC has completed an internal investigation into its causes.
 
As speculation is running rampant on the future of Top Gear and Flintoff's involvement in it, reports are also saying that the secrecy is coming from the BBC with good reason. They have no interest in having people know what happened because they were in the wrong, sacrificing safety by cutting costs. Specifically, they ditched safety measures for test drives and stunts, and it showed when Flintoff crashed in that three-wheeler.
