You can ignore the laws when you have a fat wallet though, right? Oh, and the Prius uses NiMH batteries not NiCd, so no cadmium there!

I hope the used versions found their way to people who would not be that way. Of course it seems most Priuses out there are owned by the trendy, who will dump it when the next stylish cars comes around. I imagine they traded their Mini Cooper for the Prius, and the Cooper was obtained by trading in their VW Bug.

Come to finland, that speeding would cost you your monthly wage, no matter how much you make. And get your drivings licence "on the shelf" to "slow down" for weeks. You can plead the shelving of the licence if you have to be able to drive to make your living, but the Finland has the world record speeding tickets. There is one guy at Nokia whos paid over 100 000 € in fines for doing 47 on 31 mph zone, and loads of people that have made tens of thousands of euros in fines.

The production of a car generates greenhouse gases too. A car should last you years and years. Replacing a car any quicker than (say) every 10 years generates more greenhouse gas emissions than you could possibly save by driving an eco-friendly car.
