December 31, 2010 is the last day hybrids will be allowed as solo drivers into the carpool lane in Calfiornia, unless the current bill on extending the privilege passes in the legislature.
Lawmakers are working on a bill extend HOV access to 'alternative fuel vehicles' including electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids and CNG vehicles into the diamond lane.
The reprieve for hybrid owners in the current bill would extend the end date to July 1, 2011.
Considering how much those car pool lane stickers are worth to owners, this is a big deal to hybrid car owners who don't want to be left behind just because electric and plug-in hybrid cars are coming.
