Now that something like a quarter of car sales in BC are EVs, I am starting to think their privileged access to HOV lanes is no longer a sustainable concession. There are just so many that the priority should shift back away from single occupancy vehicles.

Alternatively, we could keep the allowance, but add a second HOV lane, leaving gas vehicles to whatever’s left on the highway. But that probably be unpopular. 😀

Who in government would I write to express this opinion? MP or MLA?

      Need to tackle problems in a specific order, transit is the largest one rather than HOV lanes.

      I don’t understand why we can’t have trains ):

        Yeah, a core train line down the Fraser valley would be amazing. Something to connect from Hope all the way to Whistler with high speed commuter rail.

        That said, I think we can do multiple things at once. :)
