Yeah, I saw one in the HOV lanes on Friday on the way home. The slugs in the car and I were talking about it. Wishing there was a cop around to bust the guy but ah, didn't happen.

Pfftttt...they never do when you need them. I was beginning to merge off of the HOVs one evening and I was behind a vanpool when this single occupant in a luxury vehicle (not a hybrid) zooms around both of us, driving over the striped lines (lane had ended). The guy in the vanpool points the dude out to the state troopers who were sitting at the end of the HOV lanes and the state trooper just shrugged.

WTF?

colossus911,

If "the one ..." was a new-plated hybrid and the driver had 2 slugs on board with him, he would have been legal on the HOVs.

Assume you meant "the one in the HOV lanes on Friday" was a new-plated hybrid with just one cheating SOB driver in it.
Just another of the many examples of the "I'm just so damned important that rules or laws don't apply to me" attitudes that permeate some residents of NoVa.

I just checked the VA web site... does anyone know what "Engrossed by House" means?

Somebody really, REALLY likes that TV show with Hugh Laurie? I'm sorry, but it was just screaming for a punch line.[8D]

Anyway, here's what I found:

Engrossed in the House (or Senate):
An engrossed bill is the official copy of a bill or joint resolution that has been passed by one chamber, including the text as changed by any amendments that have been agreed to on the floor, and certified by the Clerk of the House or the Secretary of the Senate. The House's engrossed documents are printed on blue paper; the Senate's on white paper.

I don't know if the "by" makes a difference, but you get the idea.

Yeah Sludge they were in the HOV lanes and I was wondering if they knew they were violators or just figured they had a hybrid so they could drive in the lanes.
