----Hybrid Cars allowed in the carpool lane----
My Take: I am all for saving the environment and doing my part in "going green" and if this law was only for Hydrogen Cars omitting just water......I get it. But is anyone else accutely aware of the fact that electricity does not spontaneously come from magic. Hate to break it to all you Prius owners but burning coal for electricity is just an alternative way to destroy the environment and deserves no special treatment. Also, check out the life of an electric car battery and, oh yeah, the super efficient way that we dispose of them. Recycle? Nope, not able to just yet, just throw them in a big pile at the local landfill. And for this specimen of clean carbonless footprinting, I offer you the commuter lane so you can go home and plug in your car for tomorrow's fill of "magic" power. Good work politicians, way to think that one through. Oh wait, one more thing, you deserve a big old tax credit too. Federal Deficit....smeficit
