"...was driving his Prius at 100 miles per hour..."

Is that the son he climbed Rainier with a few years back?

 

Yes. He's also the one who was almost killed in a car accident at age 6.

 

A funny article on the Prius. apparently it's limited to 103mph.

this takes the cake:

 

A check of statistics compiled by Car and Driver magazine suggests that the slowest car on the road is not the Prius, but the hairy-chested AM General Hummer H1, with a top speed of only 88 mph.

If you're a really cool Prius owner you can add on battery packs so the thing is even more electric. Maybe that's why they didn't let him off the hook.

There was an interesting article in the NYT the other day about various models that weren't instantly identifiable as hybrids weren't actually selling all that well - such as the now discontinued Camry hybrid. Says quite a bit about the relative importance of which motives hybrid buyers claim to be acting upon, and those that they are actually acting upon.
