Good that always bugged me. It is High Occupancy Vehicle, not Highly Offensive Vehicle.

Yeah Motocycles and Buses are allowed in the HOV lane regardless of occupants.

And any 2 or more persons (they have to be LIVING and separate) in the vehicle cablin (not in the truck) are allowed in the HOV lane regardless of age.

What about if they're in the back seat and no one is in the front passenger seat? Is the camera gonna take a pic?

Does what I posted fall into that catergory? 101 thinks so

There are no cameras to catch HOV lane violators (and God knows that Mexicans in tinted out Altimas are the biggest cheaters).

Yeah maybe...but they are usually segregated off by double yellows, which makes a nice path for splitting the lane.

HOV's rock for flying by 20 mph faster than all the tools driving to work solo in their Escalades.

Segregation FTW!

Shit. Just because a lot of people don't use it doesnt make is gay. There's people that think 6 lanes is too many since a lot of people can't find that far left lane. Fuck that. The more lanes the better. Makes it easier to zig through traffic.
