They aren't rubbernecking; they're just hypermiling :?
The other night on I was an interstate with a 70 MPH limit (traffic going 75), and sure enough there was a Prius going below 55 clogging up traffic in one of the two otherwise wide open lanes. I wonder how much gas everybody else expended trying to go around him?

I like Prius drivers. They save fossil fuels so I don't have to. :D

The only thing more annoying than a slow, underpowered car driving slowly in the passing lane is Harley Davidson riders cruising in the fast lane.

Good thing that isn't in effect, because I would get flipped on a daily basis. :P
