Educate me, what’s an “HOV sticker”?
Several enlightened states have special lanes limited to car poolers. high occupancy vehicles. Another liberal pipe dream like light rail and electric cars. Hybrids and electrics get to use HOV lanes no matter the body count in the car.
A great example is in Northern Virginia. The HOV lanes are lightly traveled while the normal lanes are bumper to bumper with government drones entering or leaving DC. If they opened the HOV lanes to all traffic, it would add two more lanes and ease everyone’s commute.
High Occupancy Vehicle.
If you have the sticker, you can ride in the carpool lane and speed past the rest of us schlubs, who pay taxes to maintain that lane...
