It looks like that thing would be a pain in the *** to keep in your lane while driving. You can see that it's about as wide as his parking spot. Why do that? Zero margin for error.

I wonder if its over 8 1/2' wide? I think that's the legal limit. My 5er is 8 1/2' wide and sometimes going thru some of those tight construction zones is like threading a needle!

stick a couple cruise missiles in those bumpers and you could knock a few Pre-I's (plural for prius) off the road as you pass them and then blow some smoke on them in the ditch!

Q: What do you call a Prius driver who is clueless about the environmental impact of the batteries the car is using, let alone the dangers of the high-voltage EMF surrounding the occupants?

A: A Prion.

That bumper would be great for parades, for the king and queen to stand on it and throw candy..... I'm guessing they built the rear bumper just to offset the weight of the front one.
