One thing that bugged me a bit about this episode was the "eight minutes of air." A car that size, with three people in it, would take more like two hours before the CO2 level got too high. They had the same problem with the hospital on the moon in the first episode. It ran out of air much too quickly (unless the force field was leaking.)
I can justify it in this case cos it could well be included on the driving test - like stopping distances - its a thing you learn by rote without actually understanding it.
I dont know - haven't you every played the "how much air is there trapped in this building" game when you've been really really bored? Or it might have been a standard question at the staff room christmas party amongst the Anesthetists... But it does seem a little unlikley.
