State Sen. Carole Migden rear-ended a car on Highway 12 Friday that left one person with minor injuries, the California Highway Patrol said.

Migden, D-San Francisco, was reaching for her cell phone and took her eyes off the road just before she hit a 2005 Honda sedan, the senator's office said in a statement. Migden was on her way to a meeting in Marin County.

"She was not injured, and later passed a routine breathalyzer test and then she drove her car home," the statement said.

The driver of the Honda suffered minor injuries and was taken to a hospital. No one else was injured, and no citations were issued, the CHP said.

She just got rid of her Caddy (state car) last Monday and got this Hybrid SUV.

Minor injuries .. under 100K settlement.

I hope she has Aflac.

Did any toxic battery chemicals leak onto the road?

Migden was on her way to a meeting in Marin County.

Sounds like she was well on her way to being medicated for the affair and got distracted by that pesky cell phone.

No, fortunately. What a potential mess for first responders and rescue teams.

Stoopid AP, blaming this on Ms. Migden.

Clearly, the headline should read, “CELL PHONE causes minor auto accident, no major injuries.
