People who drive hybrid cars have fuel economy on their mind when driving. This means slow acceleration and slow speed. Now combine that with the typical American driver who doesn't understand the distinction between slow and fast (passing) lanes. Tempers get hot real quick...
I actually try to avoid driving behind a hybrid car. I see them ahead, make my lane change, and move ahead without any issues.

Eco cars serve a purpose............they save more gas for the real cars to burn.

Prius's(?) remind me of 2 things... one is the trailer for horrible bosses where he talks about drag racing in the Prius.

The second is an epic quote I read online somewhere "I downshift next to Prius's so they can hear me killing the environment" - After reading that I proceeded to make a point of doing it whenever I saw one.. lol


But around here none of them drive under the speed limit, they all drive like their hair is on fire..

I deal with one (same one) every morning on my way to work. But he didn't get the memo and drives the thing like a F1 race car. A couple of times I've got beside him at the red light. When the light turns green... he bolts. I don't even try to keep up with him because my eyes are all watery from laughing so hard!!
