Georgia and John McGinty were riding in an Uber in New Jersey when it crashed in March 2022 .

They suffered 'life-changing' injuries after the crash, including spine fractures and abdominal wall injuries.

They tried to sue Uber over the crash but were told they could not take the case to a jury in court.

New Jersey's Supreme Court ruled they had agreed to the terms of the app on multiple occasions.

The McGintys say they did not realise they were waiving their right to sue the company.

Georgia and John McGinty say the Uber case has been "absolutely devastating" to their family.

Georgia says their daughter, now 14 , "suffered a lot of trauma as a result" She had a separate physical health issue which she was going through at the time.

"Luckily, she's a fighter, like her parents are," says John .
