I am not surprised. I live in the bay area and let me tell you, prius drivers are aggressive like quick lane changes, rolling up close to bumpers etc. A childhood friend of mine is a cop about an hour away and we were just talking about prius drivers and he agreed for his area as well.

There's got to be more to this story than what the article reports.

One of the reasons I carry a gun when I'm riding. Wasn't that long ago that in many parts of the country it was open season on bikes.

I have a FLHTCUI, and a Chevy pickup. I'm always happy when I drive them. Now that gas is $3.87, I ride my bike or my wife's Prius. Don't blame the Prius driver for being crabby. Neck probbly hurts from bending down to see out the window!
