Friends: 0 |  I was driving along to work this morning, driving the posted 55 mph limit. Another car was in the lane on my left and just ahead of me by maybe two car lengths. There were cars in the lane on my right. All of a sudden, a car came zipping up next to me, sped up and floored it by cutting in front of me and off he went at, I'm guessing, 65 (based on how fast he pulled away), but not before I noticed the Honda Civic Hybrid emblem on the right rear side. I just sort of smiled and thought "rookie".

Friends: 42 | I saw my first one the other day, and couldn't help but laugh... both side mirrors had already been stolen off of it for their built-in turn signal lamps. My buddy is picking his up in the next week or so and that was the first thing he mentioned when he saw that they added them to the hybrid and not the standard Civic - "Oh great, now someone's going to rip those off of mine to put on his DX."

Friends: 26 | Hmm.. a local radio station has a Ford Escape Hybrid... it was accelerating quickly.. much more than I was. Of course it was travelling at > 60 as I was already at 60km/h |
