The California HOV form has been updated!

Pest · 08-10-2005, 07:02 PM

The website now lists the Prius as being eligibile:

http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/carpool/carpool.htm

And the form now has a Hybrid checkbox:

http://www.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg1000.htm

W00t!

Coolest.
According to local DMV we all have to mail it because it is so new, to Sacramento.
They said 4-6 weeks (per the local DMV).

Thanks for the heads-up. I looked at that page yesterday and they weren't accepting hybrids.

I'm having troubles downloading that reg1000.pdf form. Maybe we Prii-ites are bringing the DMV to its veritable knees?

I'll attach it here. I hope that's OK with the DMV....

Got it. Thanks.

They say to mail it in. I'm wondering if there is anywhere that I can get a sticker in person. Maybe a DMV office?

I'm on hold with the Auto Club right now to see if i can do it there.

The DMV office does not have the stickers (according to my DMV).
I am mailing it tonight!

I just learned that the Auto Club can't do it, so I'm gonna mail mine in too.

In other words, "the race is on to be the first on your block."

So what's with the required "Bay Area Fast Trak" proof for bay area drivers? I live nowhere near a bridge, nor do I use any of the bridges, and they want me to spend $40 so I can get a useless transponder in my car so I can get in the car pool lanes on 101 near my house and in the south bay? This seems quite odd, and quite out of the blue. Did anyone else see that in the DMV form? Ideas?
