After watching "Remember the Titans" and reading the sad story about Gerry Bertier, I have a question. We thought after the accident he was left paralyzed from the shoulders down, then we read that he was involved in a head on collision in 1981 (ten years later) which sadly killed him. Someone said that he was driving the car when he was killed...we were wondering how he could drive if he was paralyzed from the shoulders down from the first accident. There was no mention of anyone else being in the car with him?
Cars can be modified so people can drive entirely with their hands. http://www.gerrybertier.com/newsclips/DEATH-Article.gif
