"I would state that there are far more violators, single drivers, than there are hybrid drivers in those HOV lanes," she said. "That's what we really need to get a handle on." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...020102058.html
Looks like Virginia is having a problem with HOV lanes getting tight. They are extending access for hybrids in the HOV lanes and trying to increase the penalty for cheaters.
I think we should consider the same in California. Then I can enjoy the 210 freeway instead of having to take surface streets

I got my stickers yesterday! Mailed in the application on 1/9/2006, got them on 2/2/2006. #46XXX. I actually fully expect to be pulled over if a cop is watching when I go on an HOV lane since I haven't seen a single other 2006 HCH yet so the cops wouldn't be expecting a car like that in the HOV lane without multiple people. But I mainly got them to hopefully increase resale value anyway.

Got mine in mail today.
Mailed app on 1/10 with license plate box blank, only VIN filled in.
Check cashed 1/27.
Sticker# is 456XX
Interesting that others who got theirs today and yesterday have higher numbers.
Along with the certificate you keep in your car, there's a business size white envelope with the placement instructions printed on the front. (Can't help wondering why they printed this on an envelope? What am I supposed to put in it--my certificate maybe?). The placement instructions are quite specific and detailed with 4 separate graphics, including diagrams and arrows, reminding me of the Alice's Restaurant song.
Driver's side of front bumper
Driver's side of rear quarter panel behind wheel well
Passenger's side of rear quarter panel behind wheel well
Passenger's side of rear bumper
I'm still debating whether to try the sheet magnet method to attach them to the quarter panels.

CProgrammer,
You do realize the law is set to expire in 2007 or 8 (can't remember which one) if its not extended right ???? You would need to sell your car well before then for it to warrant the price increase justification.
