Default Re: Hybrids in DC Metro Area

Correct link to article


Virginia is not overrun with hybrids. By the statistics in the guy's article, there are 8,280 hybrids in VA, out of 1.5 million vehicles. That's .55%. One in every 181 vehicles is a hybrid.

This guy's a hack, looking to make a few bucks with a shoddy article on washpost.com. 12 column inches is a car payment. He picked an obvious target: hybrids and HOV restrictions. His article has no point. Does he approve of hybrids? Does he disapprove? It's not clear. He's incoherently throwing out information he's derived from 11-month old data.
