    Has anyone posted this already? From Re-Involt.com, video on how to stop a runaway Prius, which presumably there are few if any real life examples of that happening, but just in case:

    Thank you very much! That was handy - it's nice to know what extra emergency stop procedures are available in event of the unthinkable :)

    Thank you. However, even though I've owned my "Spaceship" for little over 6 weeks now, I'd been lurking on Prius Chat for about 8 months......this is the best manual ever! Having said that, I did download a PDF version of the 2008 manual on to my iPad and DID spend the first few hours sitting in the cockpit like an airline pilot going over his checklist! I have yet to play properly with all those voice commands!!! I totally love my Prius Class "Spaceship"....!!!! :D
