Absolutely. I recently reviewed a couple of new LEED specs -- in one a building can get 1-4 points toward a LEED rating if (10%, 25%, 50%, 75%) of its occupants use some other commute transport than single-occupancy standard automobiles!
I’ve seen those loony rules as well. How do you prove the commuter claim without putting your license at risk? And the boys and girls in DC can manipulate the rules on a whim to make you dance a new dance.
