A girl paralysed in a car crash used eye movement technology to tell police the name of the reckless driver behind the wheel. The 18-year-old girl spelled out Asman Nawaz, a convicted drug-dealer's name by looking at the letters on the screen.

Through Eyegaze, she gave a statement which her grandmother read at Luton Crown Court- “I can't move and I can't breathe on my own. I will never get a job or have any freedom and I am in pain all the time.”

Nawaz was giving a lift to the girl to her college when he lost control and hit the tree and he is now sentenced to serve 41 months jail-time.
