On Hwy 1, you need at least one more person besides the driver, for a total of two people. Oh and motorcycles can go on it too.

That mannequin's kind of hot......... j/k.

I betchya the dude is like missing her. LOL.

My buddy from Alberta makes fun of us drivers from BC, because we obey the laws concerning the HOV lane. Over there nobody gives a rat's ass (so he says).

It would be funny if cops set up road blocks on the HOV lane =D. Do this for a month and I bet they could make millions off ticking ppl illegally using the HOV lane.

thats because people are driving too slow in the fast lane. when 18 wheelers are going as fast as u, u need to speed up!.

soo many crappy drivers driving in the HOV or fast (Middle) lane.
I think if you're gonna just cruise, then drive in the right lane, the HOV and middle lane are for people that can drive at a decent speed.

I 'd say screw the HOV lanes.

The exit for Steveston on the 99 HWY ( heading south ) in the morning is BITCH as it is connected to the HOV lane.


When traffic is lined up due to closing one lane for the Massey Tunnel, drivers who want to exit to Steveston Hwy has either wait 10 to 15 mins in line, or they have to cheat and use the HOV lane to exit.

I see cops there every week in the morning camping there. They give out atleast 50 tickets every single day. its unfair for those who need to exit. if you let these drivers exit, it'll shorten the line as well..

I recommend the gov't to either scrap the HOV lane on the 99, or move the HOV lane to the far left.

If you can't read a fucking sign, it's the slow lane for you. That's the lane furthest to the right, dummy.

+1 to Marco, if the guy isn't holding up the HOV lane then he's taking his own risk driving in it and I'd have no problem with it.

“That is a first for me," said Const. Shipley, a three-year member of the police service, in a news release. “Everyone is in a hurry these days, but the HOV lane is there for a reason — you get caught misusing it and you could be fined. Drive safely and drive smart."


Wait. So how is driving in the HOV lane if you're the only one in the car considered dangerous?
How is taking it so you can avoid slow retards, and cutting your commute by 30 mins considered, not smart?
