Re: Virginia Allowing Hybrids in HOV Lane Irritates
Ditto for Double Trinity's comment about HOV lanes and reducing congestion. If we're a single occupant vehicle, we should be treated as such.
If states want to reward us for driving Hybrid vehicles, those with toll roads could do so by giving us discounts. We pay more up front for our vehicles, which in turn create more tax revenues for our states. And with income tax incentives going away, a small token of our states' appreciation of driving cleaner vehicles would be nice. I can just hear the state saying they're losing money because of us - we don't buy as much gas so they don't get that tax money... Anyone have a contact with the EZ-pass people??
