After this latest report of a runaway Prius, Toyota tried to "collect" the car, whereupon the cops told 'em no. Had some ridiculously outrageous idea that the Prius didn't belong to Toyota, it belonged to the owner.
Really, folks. Who does Toyota think they are? Whatever. One thing's for sure, though. Before long, a runaway Prius will be so commonplace it won't make the news...
