They did say that "hybrid drivers drive more miles"... which is kinda like saying future cancer patients are apt to smoke...

but they also quantified some of the statistics in "per 100,000 miles driven". I did not like that they compared the crash cost against the average... I'd be willing to bet that the average write-off car is older and hense lower valued than the average prius on the road.

Interesting, though.
