    Nice find. I hope I never have to find out first hand how save it is or isn't. But this will comfort my wife's concerns about me shuttling the kids in a Prius.

    Safety ratings was high on the list of my reasons for the Prius. Thing is, I was on the waiting list before the Prius was even tested in the U.S. Needless to say, it passed with flying colors.

    If you want unfortunate, first-hand, acknowledgements of Prius safety, search the forums and more than a handful of members have told tales of walking away from pretty bad accidents.
