The Prius thing is for real.  I have a friend who has one at it does accelarate on it's own but he tells me when it happens he just drops the car into neutral and that shuts the engine off.  He does tell me it is not the foot feed, it is something in the electronics, this friend is a electronic engineer for Boeing and he knows fly by wire controls.  I can't help but wonder how much this whole issue is driven by the UAW and their pet Senators and Representatives getting back at Toyota because of their non-union shops.

you know I can't help but wonder along those same lines Freddie. sounds like a virus to me..........

so now we all know, if you see a Prius racing outta control tell the poor driver to hit the ignition button. Anyone remember those comment paddles you could hold up with messages to other drivers?
