When two Prius(es) pass each other in Boulder and a tree falls on them both – do they make a sound?

How often do we have a crazy coincidence lie this one? Unless such a thing you are about to read happened in a Toyota Prius dealership. Now, lets read the story. A 75-year old Maple tree came crashing down Monday in the middle of Broadway Street in Boulder, Colorado. Nothing unusual until you consider it fell on not one, but two, Prius. Our friends at AutoInsane got a video of the aftermath (via YouTube).
Diana Barnett was driving her light-green Toyota Prius with her 18-year old daughter in the passenger seat when she saw a large green blur fall in front of her followed by a “big crash.” In the aftermath Barnett’s Prius was impaled by a large branch from a 75-year old Maple tree blown over by a strong microburst of wind. The branch came down so violently it pierced the front windshield and traveled to the floor-board. Luckly Barnett and her daughter were not seriously injured, although Barnett did go to the hostpital with back pain. Strange enough, another light-green Prius traveling in the opposite direction, driven by Lisa Bennett was also hit.
BTW, what’s the plural for Prius? I think Priuses. Please correct me if I am wrong.
