National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is telling drivers to leave extra space???

IF YOU HAVE A PRIUS LEAVE DISTANCE WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU BECAUSE YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO STOP YOUR PRIUS.  "Loss of braking is most likely to occur when traveling over an uneven road surface, pothole or bump," the agency said in a statement. "If this occurs, the agency advises owners to continue to firmly press on the brake to stop the vehicle. As an extra precaution, drivers can leave extra stopping distance."
