    Caltrans: Limit hybrids in carpool lane
    REPORT FINDS CONGESTION IN DIAMOND LANES, RECOMMENDS NO NEW SOLO PERMITS

    Worried about increased congestion, a new Caltrans report recommends capping the number of hybrids that can be driven solo in state carpool lanes at current levels.

    The story seems to cover "carpool lane clogging" in just the Bay Area/NorCal...I wonder what they would find if they did a similar study into the so-called hybrid-caused HOV lane congestion in SoCal (namely the Los Angeles/Orange County metro area).

    I haven't used mine. How much do you think I can get for it?

    You can only sell the stickers if you sell the car along with them; they're tied into the vehicle's registration info. Non-transferrable.
