Snap removes speed filter linked to reckless driving lawsuits - The Verge

The in-app effect displays your current speed in miles or kilometers per hour, and many critics have claimed the feature encouraged reckless driving — with some saying that Snap should be held liable when the speed filter was connected to deadly car crashes.

One concerning a 2015 car accident in Georgia arrived just a few years after Snapchat was first updated to include the filter.

The Ninth Circuit Appeals Court recently ruled that Snap could be sued for the speed filter / sticker’s involvement in car accidents.
