Just a day after Mr. Sikes apparently lost control of his Toyota Prius in Southern California, a suburban New Yorker claimed they couldn’t brake and slammed a Toyota Prius into the side of a building. NHTSA states their computer data from the Toyota Prius shows at the time of the accident its throttle was open. Meaning: driver was not applying the brakes. Tisk tisk, crafty New Yorker.
