How come so many Prius drivers think they are better than everybody else?
It's a car. It's only a car.
A lot of them act like they're smarter than everybody else, too.
I asked someone that has one if they were aware that the technology used in that particular car requires the extensive uses of rare metals, most of which are mined in remote places by exploited native labor that are being paid pennies a day.
That made a jaw fall practically to the ground. I started to see a few cracks in their 'cooler than thou' attitude.
I'm sure they are going to go home and go straight to Google and see if it's true or not.
I don't know if it's true or not. I do know that the technology does require the use of rare metals but have no clue as to how much or where these metals come from.
The point is that you really ought to stop and think a minute before you go charging off and buy something that is the latest cool thing to have.

Also ask the Prius owner if they are aware if they get into a serious accident and their vehicle catches fire, and that oh-so-elite battery of theirs ignites the EMT's cannot help you as it is now a Hazmat situation and a separate Hazmat team needs to be called - which may be 15-20 mins away? Ask any EMT to verify this.
