Bill information
Summary
To allow certain veterans to use high occupancy vehicle lanes, including toll lanes.
Plain-language summary
The HOV Lanes for Heroes Act would allow certain veterans to drive alone in high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, which normally require multiple people in a car. HOV lanes, sometimes called carpool lanes, are designed to encourage shared rides and reduce traffic. Some HOV lanes charge tolls to single drivers who want to use them. This bill would exempt qualifying veterans from HOV requirements, letting them use these lanes regardless of how many passengers they have. The bill was recently introduced in Congress and is currently in the early stages of the legislative process.
