The Prius is designed so that if the inverter fails, the car enters a fail-safe mode, known as limp-home, in which it can move slowly out of traffic to “enhance safety,” the company statement said.

Nothing like limping along as you try to move across several lanes on an interstate where everyone else is going 70.

That's what blinkers are for! Of course, their functioning might be iffy if you've got a massive electrical system failure on your hands.

Maybe that explains all the Prius drivers driving slow in the passing lane. /LOL
