All things Democrat prove to be a scam in the end.

Don’t panic, single occupant California EV drivers.

Buy a cheap mannequin. Dress it up like a Muslim. Put it in your front passenger seat. No one will bother you.

Simple, eh?

Solo carpool access? Is that where you can use the carpool lane as long as you are holding a red Solo cup?

My sister traded in her Acura and purchased a Tesla. She loves the Tesla around town, but trips to see her son in Truckee and daughter in St Louis are distances that force driving the pickup or flying. I don't know if she has been taking advantage of the "solo" access.

On a related note, I've seen a lot more Teslas around Pocatello this Summer. Recently, I've started checking to see if they have Idaho license plates. A few do and they are local (Bannock County 1B prefix) plates. Winter is coming. I only know of 2 places to charge an EV in town. The Walmart lot and one of the car dealers.

Ah, yes. The government giveth, and the government taketh away.

This is actually a repeat of the democRATS offering carpool lane access to the “correct” vehicle.

When the Prius hybrid first came out, the same virtue-signaling leftists purchased them. The Kalifornia democRATS dangled the same “carpool lane access” if you had, or would buy, a Prius. Later, they rescinded carpool lane “privilege.” More than a few of the Prius owners who ONLY purchased the Prius to access the carpool lane were none too pleased. Oh, well.

“California EV drivers to lose solo carpool access in October: What to know”

Some well-deserved PUNISHMENT for helping to advance the Democrat Agenda.

Good! I have had an electric car for six years and never got the sticker so I don’t drive in the car pool lane. I only drive it when my wife is with me, then we qualify to be in the car pool lane. I don’t believe in car pool lanes to begin with. I think they are inefficient and dangerous.
