They probably need this because the Prius is so tough to park. I thought it was strange when I first encountered on a Prius on the street in Sand Diego and could not parallel park behind it in a Camry for the life of me.
Back in NYC, I rented one from zipcar and had a lot of trouble parking it. The visibility is poor front and back and you have no idea where you are relative to the other cars. I ended up doing that pathetic back-and-forth jockey bit. I was shocked at how much room I had been working with when I finally got out.
