I can understand the woman being mentally damaged by the event and irrationally seeking blame elsewhere
but I can't understand why a lawyer would tell her yes, that sounds like a perfectly acceptable legal action, lets do it.

That article doesn't mention...
...the fact that the driver's husband, who was following behind, happens to be a police officer. And when the local police arrived, even though she had run over three kids, she was allowed to leave without further questioning or even a breath test.

See!
Social media can be used for good. What else can we change ?
Oh I know, we could let the world know that in 1994, England, the US and the Russians promised to defend and guarantee Ukraine from invasion and border threats IF it gave up it's nuclear deterrent... Which Ukraine agreed to
Perhaps the Ruskies just forgot? By letting them know about the 1994 Budapest memorandum via a tweet perhaps they'll fuck off home and have a vodka instead.
Edit: a reference: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_weapons_and_Ukraine
Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances[7]), may be summarized as follows: Russia, the UK and the USA undertake to respect Ukraine's borders in accordance with the principles of the 1975 CSCE Final Act, to abstain from the use or threat of force against Ukraine, not to place pressure on Ukraine by economic coercion, to assist Ukraine in the event of the use or threat of aggression against Ukraine, and to seek assistance from the UN Security Council in the event of aggression.
