CALIFORNIA SENATOR CAROLE MIGDEN rear-ends vehicle sending driver to hospital with minor injuries - KTVU reporter Rob Roth video - Witness alleges Migden did not appear “to be all there” and screamed, “I’m a Senator”
18 May 2007

California Senator Carole Migden this morning rear-ended a vehicle sending its passenger to a local hospital with minor injuries, according to the California Highway Patrol.

KTVU-TV reporter Rob Roth is reporting a witness said Migden did not appear “to be all there” and screamed, “I’m a Senator.”

The senator rear-ended a 2005 Honda sedan, which was slowing to a stop behind a van that had already stopped at a red signal light at the intersection of Beck Avenue and Highway 12 in Solano County, according to a CHP spokesman.

She was given a breathalyzer test which showed Migden was not under the influence of alcohol and no citation was issued.

Migden’s office released a statement indicating, “While driving to the meeting, Senator Migden’s cell phone rang and in reaching for the phone she took her eyes off the road. She was not injured, and later passed a routine breathalyzer test and then she drove her car home. Senator Migden is very grateful that no one was seriously injured.”

Thankfully, no one was seriously injured.

One would hope that this discredits her public career. But I’m not holding my breath.
