Question 152

Can a mixed-use vehicle carrying only the driver ever use a high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane?

  1. No, because it must carry the specified minimum number of people.
  2. Yes, if the driver is a novice driver.
  3. Yes, if the vehicle displays the disability sign.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, if the vehicle displays the disability sign.

The reduced-mobility sign allows an authorized adaptable mixed-use vehicle to use the HOV lane with only its driver. In that case, it does not need to meet the usual minimum occupancy.
