Had to believe the parents are ok with a few baht for their children.

Quite possibly because that don't know that in many other countries there are different rules and values... to them this is standard. Sadly.

NOTHING, yes i would pay for damages. BUT we know the thais hate forieners and they are racist towards us. Stuoid is stupid does to use the quote

In any developed country it would have been 'Causing death by dangerous driving' and she would most likely recieve a sentence of 5-7 years in Jail for causing the deaths of two innocent people !

Unless she was the wife of a diplomat, then there would be no punishment at all.

Indeed. No mention of her loosing her driving licence either.

You’ve got to be kidding. Or under thinking/ drunk. No jail time? Small fine. Please. Imagine being plowed into surviving a few minutes and drowning!  Oh yah. Nothing to think about. Mai pen rai. She also completely denied it. 

And you’ve missed the entire point of what I was saying. Good for you! Congrats

It’s not a value of a life, just compensation to place responsibility and ease the pain of loss. Something that happens all over the world.
Why do westerners constantly overthink things here to suit a worn out and boring narrative  

By all over the world you mean the monkey countries, where drivers don't properly learn how to drive, have to proof their skills and have to do exam in the traffic law. I think your nickname tells the truth...

It simply means 'short of statue', which he was apparently.

[Teacherduck 88]

And now a "go fund me page" to pay those terrible fines imposed by the court. Please help me, I'm a poor defenseless, hopeless girl who can't drive.

Some of you have been here a long time you still do not get it they look at all this very different than it is looked at in the west. You may not agree with it but how is that working out for you. If you want western justice you will need to go back home.
