Two Birmingham women, whose lives were both changed forever, are trying to change the way we speak about dangerous driving. In 2014 - Lucy Harrison's brother Peter Price was killed in a hit and run on the Hagley Road... That same year, and on the same road, Harriet Barnsley was hit by a speeding driver doing 101 miles per hour... She was left in a coma - her friend Rebecca was killed. Now Lucy and Harriet have teamed up to change road traffic legislation to refer to "collisions" and not accidents..
