Re: Anyone in CA received their HOV lane stickers?
It's hard to say what'll sway Arnie but heck, this is America and money talks Pssst, Honda and Toyota(and whomever else) how 'bout a few campaign funds for the Arnie reelection fund
After reading the article, frankly it seems like a stretch that they'd extend things. They've already met the goal of more Hybrids so why continue to clog carpool lanes and just extend the priveledge. Whatever, hope it passes

The bill just came in perfect time ! I forgot to tell dealer to babysit through the license plate process, now I've to wait for it to come in to the mailbox. At least by the end of September. Hopefully by then either the bill is passed or there's still quota left... finger crossed as well...

It would be a Good Idea to go to the Mercury News Article and VOTE for YES, that Hybrids SHOULD be able to USE Car Poole Lane to Help Sway Public Opinion! Maybe even 'Register' on their Forum to Make postive comments in favor of Hybrids use of DIAMONDLANES...So far the NO's are in Favor...
We need to Show Our Power and Influence thru the Written Word because there are plenty on the opposite side of the 'Coin' that really Hates Hybrids and their Privledge use of the Car Poole Lane! Atleast thats how I see it!

I sent in my application for Clean Air Stickers to California DMV 5 weeks and 4 days ago. I finally received the sticker (#730xx). And the check was cashed only 5 days or so ago. Hmm...
Thanks,

If CA doesn't increase stickers (I already have mine), there's actually little logical reason to extend since the HOV access incentive for non-hybrid owners is gone, and HOV access is merely a perk for current hybrid owners.
After incentive has worked (more people owning hybrids, including me), then goal is about continuing to reduce emissions by reducing cars on road (preferably high emission cars), not extending a perk. This is unless of course hybrid owners start bailing back to gas guzzling cars which is me but I'm likely in the minority.
I can see (non-hybrid) car poolers complaining about single hybrid drivers (me) clogging up their lanes. For non car poolers stuck in regular lanes, it's a non-event since they're still stuck there.
