“Carpool lanes are making criminals out of people who are simply trying to make it to work on time,” California Assemblyman Ray Haynes, a Riverside Republican, wrote in a 2000 editorial against carpool lanes.
Hmm. “Laws against burglary are making criminals out of people who are simply trying to get other people’s stuff.” “Laws against murder are making criminals out of people who simply like killing people.” This could be extended endlessly.
“Some motorists have used imaginative deceptions to appear eligible for carpool lanes. Some have been caught with dummies in the passenger seat. Others have carried infant car seats without infants. One pregnant woman insisted that her unborn child was a passenger.”
Because actually *carpooling* is too hard to deal with, and we’re all too important to wait or follow the laws.
