    her license should be revoked permanently. These are the bad drivers that take our community members' lives. This is not the type of person we want leading our city.

      Exactly she has to be suspended or revoked and you know this arrogant woman is still out there driving

    Sort of impossible to look beyond blowing off tickets and suspended license.

    LeftBank Annex, while well-patrolled by PBOT parking enforcement, is also very, very, very close to nearly every transit line TriMet operates.

    I work downtown and have for 8 years. I see patrols daily. I have never had a parking ticket. She worked at a non-profit? Why not get the pass through the city so you can park for 1-2 hours at a space? Also, is she blaming enforcement? Blame shifting 101. Parking Kitty legit sends you messages when your spot is about to expire.

    Great interview Jonathan! Thanks for doing this reporting! Bike Portland seems like a harmless publication, but this was a great opportunity to allow Carmen to put her own foot in her mouth. No way I’d vote for someone who can amass that amount of tickets and then say she was focused on her job and family. STFU. That’s incomprehensible levels of negligence regardless of whatever is happening personally, professionally, or otherwise.

    This is the type of person that will continue to come up with excuses and "I'm not perfect" talking points instead of actually changing. Actions speak louder than words. Your words are empty because of your actions.

    The fact that she has to look at her record is nuts. Give up the car at this point, get driven/dropped off.

      Exactly. I think she's a danger on the road. If she can't make it work. Hire a driver. Exactly.

    So this interview was right before the video of her hitting another parked car and walking away without leaving a note dropped. She hasn’t evolved in terms of taking responsibility behind the wheel at all.
    It’s a shame because she clearly does care about the city and trying to make a difference but this is absolutely disqualifying.

    There were ONLY 90 tickets (shrug) LOL. In other cities I've lived in (Chicago especially) we referred to this as being a scofflaw. Someone who doesn't really care that their behavior is outside the bounds of what's legal. It is closely aligned with arrogance IMO.

    The Oregonian and Willamette Week always release a 'scandal' for leading left-leaning electoral candidates right before an election. They did the same with Hardesty (remember her 'credit card debt scandal'?), which gave us Gonzales, who I should note has a bunch of tickets and suspended licenses for speeding and registration with seemingly zero scrutiny from either major media outlets or the public.
    That said, Jonathan - I appreciate your approach in handling the interview. Thanks for your integrity.

    This was a hard no for me. I get being crazy busy and wanting to prioritize your own needs, but the number of infractions shows that Rubio has a total disregard for the law. People like Rubio count on others giving them a pass, but just ask yourself if the number of tickets and a suspended sentence is even reasonable for an average citizen, regardless of someone wanting to lead our city.

    This feels like the biggest non-issue to me.

      Clearly you have never had a relative or friend hurt because of a dangerous driver on the road. How fortunate for you. The fact is, she's a danger on the road and a DEPLORABLE driver. Hopefully, as you get older, you will learn WHY this story is so important. Good luck getting older and learning those important lessons.

      @@siaa9992 The interview is only 19 minutes 50 seconds long. A very short interview, so yeah, I watched it. I also know that she lied to a KGW journalist, and that last week, she ran into a car, and walked away. She said to KGW that she left a note on the car and then later admitted she did NOT leave a note. On top of that, 8 weeks ago, she parked in a Truck Loading Zone and walked away. She is reckless and has been pulled over for speeding and has had her license suspended a whopping SIX times. She is NOT a truthful person. So, if you want to support someone like this, who is a casual and careless LIAR, well, then be my guest but most reasonable people will not support such a reckless, entitled and flighty person. She won't be the next Mayor. On that you can rely.
