    What is the maximum annual rate of dead or maimed blind people that Prius owners would be willing to tolerate before they would be willing to change anything about their own cars?

    Given the fact the current annual number of blind people maimed or killed by a Prius because it's (sometimes) quieter than more conventional vehicles is apparently zero, I think I'd rather we focus our attentions on real issues with some sort of impact in the real world.

    But you're certainly free to get your panties in a bunch over imaginary issues.
