My BMW knows when it has been in a wreck, and it unlocks the doors,
shuts
the radio off, turns the emergency flashers on, and switches the
interior

that
circuit to ensure the safety of owners, passengers, and rescue
workers.

This is an old story, and likely an urban legend. If it bothers you,
then
don't buy one.

Jeff, what part of this situation are you referring to as being an
urband legend?

The part after, "Visiting the Toyota Website."

Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn. Pardon me for stealing a qoute from
the movies.

Quite all right. We'll look elsewhere for damns. :-)

I remain concerned, because the problem is real. But with the input
from some contributors here I think I'm on the way to relieving the
situation, at least locally.

This is a good group. Thanks to all.

Your crusade has a certain sky-is-falling quality to it. I think the First
Responders know all about this and are prepared to deal with it.

Visiting the Toyota website I found a reference to information for
first responders at an accident involving a Prius. I had not thought
previously about the hazard a wrecked hybrid presents.

That's 'cause you're not a first responder. <G

Don't worry, the first responders I know have been trained on
responding to hybrid wrecks. In many cases, the training has involved
traveling road shows at Honda and Toyota dealers.

So they shoot the occupants with a .357 and call the meat wagon?

I didn't notice when I clicked on the post who posted it, but I didn't
have to look after reading it!

Did you see the cartoon I 'modified' for you in a.b.i.f?

Which one?

BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM BLAM?

It's headered "Nice One, SCOTT"

I would only kill Santa if he was a liberal...LOL

You're crazy.

Santa _IS_ a liberal. So was Jesus Christ -- one of the most
progressive hippies I've ever read about.
