We did a test with our 2008 Prius to see if the car could be turned off while driving, and if so, what would happen to the steering and brakes. Result: You have to hold the power button for 3 seconds and then the car powers off and switches to neutral. You lose power steering which makes turning difficult but it works. The brakes behave normally which makes stopping easy.
