A Wisconsin appeals court is allowing the parents of two young people who died in a car crash to sue Snapchat.
20-old Landen Brown and 17-year-old Hunter Morby were killed when their car hit a tree at high speeds four years ago in Lyons Township.
Lawyers for the parents allege a Snapchat filter that showed how fast someone was going encouraged the driver to speed up to 123 miles-an-hour to activate the filter.
An onboard computer indicates the car was going 113 miles an hour when it went out of control.
A lower court ruled the 1996 Communications Decency Act gave Snapchat immunity – but the appeals court disagreed.
