In April the San Francisco Chronicle ran a story (
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...NGK7PFOMQ1.DTL) on car pool lane cheaters in the Bay Area. I remember in particular because I was interviewed for the article. In the Bay Area, there are plenty of legal users of the car pool lane, but there are also plenty of cheaters. Some, as the article's title indicates, are pretty brazen about the whole thing, not even trying to hide it. In some areas, some go so far as to use mannequins or dolls in car seats to fake out anyone (the police?) who might see them --- after all those HOV lane fines are pretty steep. A company, Vehicle Occupancy Limited (
http://www.vehicleoccupancy.com/), has a solution for that.
