FEDERAL WAY -- "I take full responsibility."
That was the apology from Federal Way police chief Brian Wilson after he got into a minor fender bender last week that he admits was due to his surfing of the Web on his Blackberry.
Wilson says he was stopped at a red light in an unmarked police car on March 18th at the intersection of S. 324th Street and Pacific Highway South in Federal Way. He then glanced at his Blackberry to check news headlines and his e-mail.
Thinking traffic had started moving again, he too his foot off the brake and bumped into the car in front of him. He says there was no damage to either car and no one was injured.
Wilson says he's never had an at-fault accident in the 28 years he's been a police officer.
