Default Re: Carpool lane access for California Hybrids (not all)

stupid idea with or without SUVs. Carpool lanes were not created with emissions in mind, although that was a side effect, they were created for traffic control. Letting single occupant hybrids in the lanes totally defeats the purpose of them.

We dont have them here in Nebraska, but I do plenty of travel and use them frequently in some larger cities. I know that in the North East, they allowed hybrids in the carpool lanes and now they are getting ready to pull them back out because they have created worse traffic problems than before they even had the carpool lanes.

...most likely a donkey, but if he had to drive a car, i bet it would be a hybrid.
