Prius drivers will travel at whatever speed they believe is appropriate to their need:
- sometimes too fast
- sometimes too slow
- sometimes just right
Call it Goldilocks cruise control.
Now if some silly busy-body wants to whine about 'those terrible Prius drivers,' well I say to their face
RIGHT ON! I don't do it to change their mind but to follow the wise advice found in Proverbs 26:5.
