The more I hear about this the less I’m believing it.

Just read an article posted on Fark.com that this was a hoax. The guy is $700,000 in debt and had not made payments on his Prius.

We'll see......

...this was a hoax..

Maybe, but the Highway Patrol officer who helped him said there was no doubt that the driver was applying his brakes and the car was not slowing down.
