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.
no shit because the power steeting would turn off
