[gps-talkusers] Re: Hybrid cars:

Sissy and I almost got hit like that by a golf cart one time.  She too stopped
  but the thing had knobby tires and I herd them as well.  I was just about to 
scold her when I herd the things.  That thing was doing about 35 miles and 
hour.  I know that because my sister has one and GPs says how fast we were 
going.----- Original Message -----

  Hi guys!
  Man! If I hadn't had a fantastic dog guide this afternoon, I likely would 
havebeen a gonner. We were getting ready to cross a church parking lot rear 
entrence on a somewhat quiet street when Peggy jammed her breaks on and what 
sounded like a bycycle sped out of the driveway and went down the street. I 
realized why she stopped, It was a hybrid car with the electric part of the 
engine running.
  Man I hope mobility courses for trainers and all dog guide schools are 
addressing this problem because it is going to get worse and worse.
  Just wanted you folks to have a heads up on this because we probably see more 
and more of these vehickles on the road.
