Add more Carpool Stickers after 55,000?

Hope they stop increasing green stickers. Only 2966 left. You never know if the original bill will pass for extra 40,000 Carpool Decal. Maybe they slip some cash under the table to increase it. You never know.

Per budget trailer bill, SB 853 (Statutes 2014, chapter 27), the green decal limit has been increased by 15,000 to a total of 55,000 stickers.
As of August 25, 2014, 52,034 "green" stickers have been issued. Green stickers are valid through January 1, 2019.
California law allows single-occupant use of High Occupancy Vehicle (HOVs) lanes by certain qualifying clean alternative fuel vehicles. A list of qualifying vehicles and frequently asked questions are provided below. Use of these lanes with a single occupant requires a Clean Air Vehicle Sticker issued by the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Currently, there are two types of stickers that are being distributed by the DMV.

 

All good. If it failed. Keep resubmitting it until pass Why don't they just open the carpool lane? Keep adding here and there. It's very slow now.

 

Nice... Increase to 70,000. Why don't they make it an even 1 millions stickers


AB 2013, as amended, Muratsuchi. Vehicles: high-occupancy vehicle lanes.
Existing federal law, until September 30, 2017, authorizes a state to allow specified labeled vehicles to use lanes designated for high-occupancy vehicles (HOVs).
Existing law authorizes the Department of Transportation to designate certain lanes for the exclusive use of HOVs. Under existing law, until January 1, 2019, or until federal authorization expires, or until the Secretary of State receives a specified notice, those lanes may be used by certain vehicles not carrying the requisite number of passengers otherwise required for the use of an HOV lane, if the vehicle displays a valid identifier issued by the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Existing law authorizes the DMV to issue no more than 40,000 55,000 of those identifiers.
This bill would increase the number of those identifiers that the DMV is authorized to issue to 70,000.
This bill would incorporate additional changes in Section 5205.5 of the Vehicle Code proposed by AB 1721, that would become operative only if AB 1721 and this bill are both chaptered and become effective on or before January 1, 2015, and this bill is chaptered last.
