cheaters vs. hybrids

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Regardless of why a Hybrid buyer bought the hybrid, they are still obeying the law while driving in the HOV, and whether they wanted to or not reducing pollution. 

	Cheaters are just plain cheating and not helping anyone. 

	and off topic...aren't government holidays great! no back up at the pentagon exit today!! [8D]

	Hybrid owners buy the car for the HOV exemption not clean air reasons. Most Hybrid owners are self serving introverts. Or at least that is why I bought mine :)

	Dina, Not all of us Hybrid drivers cruise WAY below the speed limit. I submit as evidence my 82 mph speeding ticket that also got me a reckless driving citation in the HOVs. I am NOW a reformed driver and maintain 65-70. Some of these Hybrid cars can FLY! ScarletLSG

	Hybrids!!!!! You would think that people who buy cars for clean air reasons would believe in ride sharing.

	I doubt that that the hybrid drivers are going to be allowed in the HOV lanes without three riders much longer -- I give it another year or so. Have you all noticed how bad traffic is getting in the HOV's? What in the heck is going on? The only thing that really annoys me is that hybrids go WAY below the speed limit - like the battery in their car is running low or something.[;)] Dina

	... and I forgot to mention the guy is a law enforcement officer who stops at WaWa and keeps the temperature in his car at 90 degrees! [8D][;)]

	And then there was the guy who bought his hybrid so that he could avoid Horner Rd, smoke his cigar, drink his coffee, listen to Howard Stern, talk loudly about personal things on his cell phone while driving aggressively alone at 45 mph in the HOV lanes so that he wouldn't have slugs write about him on the "DO NOT RIDE WITH LIST" on this message board.
