Ambitious but rubbish!
And dear God, they fling them around with reckless abandon! I guess they're convinced that they're saving the planet, so they can drive as fast as they want.
I agree - Prius drivers can be REALLY fast. Maybe its because their cars run quietly, they don't get that same sensation of speed like the rest of us do. Like, whenever I drive my brothers car (it has a 3" exhaust system) - I end up driving slower because of the loud noise it makes. If I were to drive it the way I normally drive a car - I'd look like a hoon.You're right! I drive five miles on an Interstate to work, and I always get passed by a Prius doing about 80 mph in 55 mph zone.
Also - the electric motor in the Prius means the power seems quite instantaneous off the mark. That may be another reason why they drive so fast. Or maybe they just think they're better than all of us. Who knows what goes on in the mind of a Prius owner/driver...
