Teenager sued over Snapchat filter


Teenager sued over Snapchat filter



A teenager’s being sued over claims she was using Snapchat at the wheel as she crashed, leaving a man brain damaged.
Christal McGee’s accused of using the app’s speed filter, which lets users see how fast they’re moving.
It’s also claimed the 18-year-old kept on using the app after the crash, posting pictures of her injuries and saying she was “lucky to be alive”.
Lawyers for Wentworth Maynard, who was a passenger in the other vehicle, say he now needs constant care from family.

In a statement, Wentworth’s wife Karen says he’s so tired he falls asleep in his wheelchair during the day.
“We used to sit on the sofa and watch TV in the evening, and Wentworth would hug me,” Karen Maynard claims in court papers. “Now, he can’t do that any more.”
