Correction: Hybrid Car Rescues story
Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA - In May 3 and May 4 stories about hybrid cars, The
Associated Press reported erroneously that the cables connecting the
high-voltage batteries to the electric motors run through the doors.
The cables run underneath the car.
In the Toyota Prius, the cables are routed below the floorpan, about
18 inches away from the driver's side door opening sills and are
protected by a metal shroud. Toyota said the company has received no
reports in the United States of any personal injuries related to the
electrical systems in the five years since the Prius was introduced.
