{Democrat State Senator, Carole} Migden's back behind the wheel
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | 9/18/7 | John Wildermuth

Sacramento -- State Sen. Carole Migden is back on the highway after her wild ride through Solano County four months ago, but she had better keep her eyes on the road, a Department of Motor Vehicles spokesmans said today.

The San Francisco Democrat had her license returned to her last week, but another moving violation could put her on the sidewalk again, DMV spokesman Mike Marando said.

Migden's license was suspended following her erratic drive on May 18 that ended when she rear-ended another car with her state-issued sport utility vehicle near Fairfield. She pleaded no contest to a reckless driving charge last month and was fined $710 and given two years of court probation.

She met with a DMV driving safety officer in Santa Rosa on Aug. 29 to appeal her license suspension, said Mike Marando, a DMV spokesman.

After hearing from Migden, studying California Highway Patrol reports of the accident and reviewing a medical evaluation provided by the state senator, the hearing officer put Migden on one year's probation.

While she is allowed to drive, her license can be revoked if she receives another moving violation in the next 12 months, . . .

The world's best criminal justice system at work. Just like O.J. "can get 30 years" according to the press reports designed to fool the sheep that there is justice. Nobody gets what they "could get" in the initial reports, but by the time they "get", who'll remember, right?

Thank you for giving me this information. I will go to the county commissioners and bitch them out (Col. Reagan) for what his courts are doing in Solano County. They wont deal with low level offenders and their lawyers/judges are CROOKS who take bribes to “fix” cases.

Please, someone tell me that this loony leftist lesbian is NOT again driving a taxpayer provided vehicle..

And - tell me that this “public servant” sucking at the public teat — had to pay for all the damage done to her PREVIOUS taxpayer provided vehicle.....

Only in San Fransiko do these people get regarded as “normal”....

I believe the official explanation was that she was having a bad reaction to “medication.” The medication routinely prescribed at Happy Hour, is my guess.

I think she got a break from a higher-up. The good news is it’s unlikely she’ll get another one.

state issued sport utility vehicle? Is that standard in California for members of the Assembly?

I hope some of her “constituents” (gangbangers) swoop and squat her in an insurance scam.
