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.
Minor injuries .. under 100K settlement.
I hope she has Aflac.
Did any toxic battery chemicals leak onto the road?
