Bay Bridge Bus Lane -- now Fasttrack?

Hi All --

So I've been using the (free!) bus lanes during my commute back to SF from Dublin (when I can get to them safely) as there aren't Fasttrack sensors on the lane. Imagine my surprise on Tuesday when I made it over and my transponder beeped as I was passing through the metering lights!

Have we lost the loophole of no tolls in the bus lane? I'll be bummed, as it was a nice perk when I could get it. However, with the state of the budget in CA I think I'll get over it. Plus it'll keep me from trying to cross 3 lanes in order to get to the bus lane....
