SAN FRANCISCO –KUTV– [1] A California lawmaker, who favors a penalty for people caught driving while using their cell phone, reportedly caused a car accident this weekend – while she was on her cell phone.
State Sen. Carole Migden, 58, D-San Francisco, was driving her state-issued SUV near Vallejo on Friday morning when she rear-ended another vehicle, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Officials say the vehicle in front of Migden was slowing down for a red light, when the senator slammed into the back of the car – which then ran into another van.
One driver complained of minor injuries, and Migden has taken responsibility for the crash.
Yet another example of the standing order from Democrats: Do as I say, not as I do.
