    Marita Davies was on her way home from a party when the crash happened.The car that Marita took as a passenger was going the wrong way and crashed into another car driven by a drunken driver named David Hudson,which left her with a broken leg and back.It took the firefighters more than two hours to free the teenager from the damaged car before she was taken to hospital.Marita was in a wheelchair for a year after being bed-ridden for nine months.
