One Less 2007 Blazing Blue Yaris on the road....(large res pics) - Toyota Yaris Forums

The Yaris can be replaced, you and your wife cannot. Glad you are OK.

The Yaris is a small car and people pay less attention to the road than ever before...........a bad combination. Since I have started driving my Yaris as opposed to my Tacoma, I can tell people just don't notice me as much. Of all places, I almost got rear-ended on the interstate about two weeks ago. I had my cruise set on 70mph and a Chevy S-10, of all things, comes racing up behind me. I can only guess he was going about 100mph. Just before he hit me, I swerved towards the shoulder and he apparently noticed me at the last second and swerved over into the left lane almost hitting a car that was passing me. Had he clipped me, I probably would not be typing this right now. I don't know how well a Yaris will do flipping at 70mph. Probably not too well.
