    Nope. That's just the way it works out, and until you just pointed this out, I hadn't noticed!

    Try to time them. Makes no sense to speed up to a light just to slam on the brakes. That's what most of the world does and it is so ridiculously stupid. (Not calling you stupid, just the action as a whole by civilization :) )

    One of the immediate gratification things I like about this Prius is that, when I find ways to drive more intelligently, (or less stupidly), it's immediately obvious in my EV miles. It's kind of addictive!
