    For those of us in Michigan, this is pretty big news considering hyrbrid owners here don't get the perks that hybrid owners in other parts of the country do. I don't generally go to Ferndale because I consider it a bit too far and out of the way to drive to but it suddenly seems somewhat closer today :) Of course, since I'd have to pay $25 per year for the decal, I'd have to do a lot of parking there.

    I just paid $1300/yr to park near U-Michigan... I wish they had this law in Ann Arbor. The Ann Arbor toyota dealer is #2 largest Prius dealer in the country!

    Yeah, Ann Arbor's the only city around here where my Prius is common place and no one ogles it. I'd move there if I could handle the long commute.
