Jason Emery over on FireEngineering.com put together a very thorough and interesting article on how to prepare the 2010 Prius for vehicle extrication in the unfortunate event that it may be needed.

The article takes an in-depth look at how to make the Prius as safe as possible while responding to an emergency situation. It even goes into how to remove the roof off of a 2010 Prius with a solar panel.
