"The story of a "runaway" Toyota Prius on a Southern California interstate Monday has since raised a lot of controversy. The driver in question, Jim Sikes, told his story to CNN's Ted Rowlands. He said he was unable to stop the car as it went over 90 mph and called 911 for help."
"iReport car reviewer romanmica has been especially interested in this story. He often shares videos of the many test drives he takes, and his honest opinions on each car and how it handles on CNN iReport, but this time it was a little different. Using an "unscientific test", romanmica wanted to see how easy it was to stop a runaway Prius (needless to say, don’t try this at home). Check out the video above."
"I tested the car on a very seldom-used road and of course made sure that the car would stop in a safe distance," romanmica told me. "I wanted to show in a very straightforward manner that while the technology may be somewhat new and different, the way you stop the car is very much the same" as a traditional car."
