Default HOV Exemption renewal for Northern VA Drivers
There is a Bill in the VA General Assembly extending the HOV exemption for two more years (HB 1014). This will allow Hybrids with the Clean Fuel plates (registered before July, 2006) to continue to drive in the HOV lanes on I95, I395 and I66. It passed in the House on 2/8 89 to 6. It has been refered to the Senate Transportation Committee. If you live in VA, please contact your state Senator and ask him to support the Bill.

To figure out who your Senator is follow the link below. It will tell you who he is, and provide a mechanism to send him a message. It'll only take a couple of minutes and it'll save hundreds of Hybrid drivers many hours of rush hour traffic.
