Indy car driver Sam Schmidt was paralysed from the shoulders down when he reversed into a wall at 200 miles an hour.

This summer, and more than 20 years after his accident, Sam made his second racing debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

He drives using a special straw that he 鈥渟ips and puffs鈥� to accelerate and brake, and cameras that use his head movements to steer.

大象传媒 Disability Correspondent Nikki Fox chats to Sam about learning to drive again and how this technology could help other disabled people get behind the wheel.
