Woman Files Suit after Crash with Medvedev's Motorcade

Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky resident Olga Kuklina, whose car was damaged on July 4 after a collision with a car in Dmitry Medvedev's motorcade, has filed a lawsuit demanding moral damages, Kuklinas attorney, Elena Komleva, told RIA Novosti. Reports indicate the woman pulled over to the curb when she saw the prime minister's motorcade, but that one of the cars suddenly changed direction, hitting Kuklina's car and then ending up in a ditch. The prime minister's press secretary Natalya Timakova said that the car's tire burst, which resulted in the crash. The driver of the car was found to be at fault for the crash. On Wednesday Kuklina filed a lawsuit for 230,000 rubles ($7,258) in moral damages, over and above the already paid 120,000 rubles ($3,787) in insurance payments.
