Student teacher almost killed in car crash as claw clip sliced her scalp

A student teacher feared she'd die when a hair clip sliced through her scalp and lodged in her head for two hours after a horror car crash. The 19-year-old is now urging motorists not to wear the hair accessory while driving for fear it could happen to others.

Jeena Panesar has spoken about a 'really traumatic' incident that occurred on January 24th when she was driving home from work in Swadlincote, Derbyshire.

Jeena says she was travelling at 50mph on a 60mph road when her vehicle hit a tree before skidding for 50 metres and flipping over - crushing her head against the roof. At the time of the crash, Jenna had her hair tied up in a claw clip when she lost control of the car.
