George Taylor, 19, recorded five videos of him driving a Volkswagen Golf at speed with his knees on the steering wheel on 18 January 2023. He had his driving licence for less than 12 months at the time.

A teenager who filmed himself driving with his knees before crashing - paralysing a mother from the neck down - has been jailed for two years and two months. George Taylor, 19, of Stretham, Cambridgeshire, recorded five videos of him driving a Volkswagen Golf at speed with his knees on the steering wheel. Norfolk Police said he had his licence for less than 12 weeks on 18 January last year, and made two phone calls and sent text messages while driving.

In a statement released via the force, Catherine's family said she 'has always been such a gregarious person with a great sense of humour and so full of life'. They added: 'I'll never forget that day when we were told she had been in an accident and then arriving at the hospital to be facing the reality that we may lose her. 'To hear that my only daughter may not survive was heartbreaking and, as her dad, all I wanted to do was make everything better for her.
