Just wondering, what if all Americans drove vehicles that got Prius-like gas mileage? How much would US oil consumption fall by? How much would gasoline prices fall by? Would this change our foreign policy for the better? Our defense committments in the Middle East? Would NavyDocs still be as frequently deployed?
The fact is, drivers of gas-guzzlers should thank Prius drivers (and bicyclists).
And realistically, it is the drivers of behemoths who are less likely to share the road with bicyclists than the more agile and controllable small vehicles.
