Anyway, a few years ago someone stood near a pedestrian crossing and kept track of drivers who ignored the pedestrians' right of way. Turns out that luxury car and Prius owners were less likely to stop for pedestrians, as required by law and common courtesy.
A couple days ago a Prius crossed over several lanes, cutting off my bus. I was in the front seat and mentioned this study to the driver.
"Ask any bus driver," he said, "they all hate Priuses."
I decided not to inform him that Toyota has decreed "Prii" to be the plural of Prius based on a public vote, though "Priuses" did come in close second.
