I've said it before: if we have to have these lanes the requirement should be two licensed drivers.

Why, I used to drive a co-worker into Boston, the guy was legally blind and can't ever get a license.

We drove in the HOV every day and if you think I shouldn't of had that right then to hell with you.

Well to hell with me too then, because, no, you shouldn't have had the right, nor should anyone else. We all pay the same road taxes and we all have the same right to use every damn lane on the highway. Carpool lanes are elitist and cause more traffic problems than they solve. Anyone who drives during rush hour knows this without being told or running a "study" on it. I want to ask you and anyone else who beieves carpool lanes actually do any good: What would happen if even 50 percent of drivers used the carpool lanes? Would it reduce traffic? No, it would make the carpool lanes so congested they would be useless and people would spill back over into the other lanes.

Lots of people CAN'T carpool. I used to drive to the Bay area every day from the other side of the valley(CA), a commute of about 2 hours one way. I didn't have anyone to carpool with and there are thousands of people in the same boat, but still we can't use a lane we bought and paid for with our taxes.

If I can't use all lanes on all highways, then I want a refund on my taxes.
