[SPAM] [SPAM] [SPAM] Hybrid cars

No, there are no HOV lanes in FL....No need for them yet, but it is coming to it. More and more traffic here and more people moves in.

High Occupancy Vehicle. It's a special lane they put in high traffic areas of the highway for carpoolers. You have to have 2 persons in the car between 3 and 6 pm to travel in that lane. So if I'm driving by myself, I can't be in the HOV lane, unless I have a hybrid. The advantage is, they are always less full, since most people drive by themselves, sadly.

 

They don't have HOV lanes in Florida, lol.

One thing I really miss about Houston was the great highway system. They built highways UP and over each other, which I guess they can't do here in CA because of earthquakes, although I don't think we get any up here.

 

Here in CA, the traffic is just awful. As you may guess, lol, I have absolutely no patience for sitting in rush hour traffic, so I avoid taking jobs that will force me to do it. And so many people are moving up into this area that it just gets worse and worse all the time.

 

That's why traveling in the HOV lane is so important to me! LOL. I might wait until Volvo comes out with a hybrid. I love my car so much I don't want to give it up for a LONG time. So by the time it dies, Volvo should have a hybrid and it won't make me feel so bad to lose my great old car, lol. Swedish technology rules! lol.
