That’s what popped into my head when I read this. Do we have a demon Prius driver attacking at random in or near Arcata (or is the sense of entitlement because of their inherent superiority gained by driving a Prius causing the accidents….)

Prius drivers get a major electricity bill discount. This is where the gavitas come in.
Its a win win.

This one was also a white prius:

The hit and run that killed the guy on the bridge was a prius too but the report doesn’t say if it was white or not.

Same guy? Seems possible.

Why such a hurry slow down and take a look at your beautiful face? Oh yeah I lost my train of thought all prius hybrid cars drivers are in such a hurry. Had one fly into a gas station doing at least 40 mph had my young daughter and a load of goats in the truck. Daughters comment wow she’s driving to fast and I said don’t worry about it. It’s a LIBERAL party of mental illness. Please slow down prius,subaru,and Volvo cars are the worst drivers take notice as you drive next time. Just had to say this please LIBERALS It’s the mental health illness or disability to act the way you all drive and protest get help and support the mental health institutions.

Hey I drive a Subaru:<)

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2015/dec/01/ted-cruz/are-overwhelming-majority-violent-criminals-democr/

I know this doesn't have much to do with it, but a quick Google search brought it up. I find it funny that the "fact checkers" decided that it was mostly false, but by their own admission he was correct in saying so. But then they argue the fact between violent and non-violent and registering after being released from federal prison. Just another example of the media bending The Narrative of the argument to make them sound more correct, seems to be a lot of that going on lately.

wow…you said that to your young daughter!? No wonder hate keeps being passed down, a simple ,yes, she was driving too fast. No need to throw political remarks of that kind to any youngster! and throwing in Liberals? People driving Prius’ are helping the earth, I am NOT saying they all drive well. Stop poisoning young kids with such snide remarks! PS I AM NOT A PRIUS OWNER…want to help the earth…but don’t like their looks.

Wow,such a jerk!! When people leave the scene of an accident YOUR GUILTY. Maybe they should fine them double for leaving and suspend their license. And or jail time. The courts are to soft on people. Oh ya PAY UP Buddy!!

Well they will now be guilty of a hit and run, which has steeper penalties then just a regular old traffic accident and if there was any injury involved it would become a felony.

HSU really needs to give their incoming students a book on how to drive in the rain and other weather as well as narrow curvy 2 lane backroads (like dont have your brights on when youre behind someone at nite) And give extra time to get to class when its raining. If one of those students hurts my family because they may be late to class, theyre gonna get it.
Seeing as 70% of last years incoming students were from LA, it seems a necessity.
I know theres other a-hole drivers but i see a lot of close calls by cars with HSU parking passes. Saw one almost hit a jogger the other day.
Texting needs to be controlled somehow as well. In LA that law is rarely enforced.
