Snapchat can be sued over a speed filter that is said to encourage reckless driving, despite the broad legal protections for social media networks.

The Ninth Circuit Appeals Court revived a case that was dismissed last year, reversing an earlier ruling that favored Snapchat.
According to The Verge, it concluded that even if users were populating the filter with their own high driving speeds, Snapchat could still be liable for implicitly rewarding that behavior.
The case, Lemmon v. Snap, was filed after a 20-year-old Snapchat user crashed his car while using the speed filter, at one point driving over 120 miles per hour.
