There are no HOV lanes in the Orlando Metro - mostly because our roads suck - I4 for example, is three lanes each way throughout most of the city expanding to four lanes briefly in certain areas. An HOV lane would cut regular traffic down to two lanes each way which would suck hard.

Ever heard of hands free dialing? Lots of cars have it these days. :p

The HOV line is shutdown in non commute hours and the weekends. Also, all the highway HOV lanes are totally barricaded off from the actual highway. You can just accidentally change lanes in the HOV lane. I know some of the HOV lanes in the city itself are just extra lanes on the road.

the cops don't set up on either end of the HOV lane and pull people over? they did that all the time back when the katy freeway had those old school lanes.

Yep.
In N.VA near where I live the cops even take the easy way. They sit at the HOV exits and just wait for people to pull up and they get their ticket right there. Cops just walk over, write ticket and then sit back down and wait.

Holy hell that highway sucks. I lived in S Florida for 20+ years and the 595 was the pits but when I took the FL turnpike to disney and the longest part of the trip was the few miles on the I4 i cursed the road for delaying my vacation! 2 or so hours on the turnpike...2 hr 30mins on I4...was soo pissed!

Oh and OP Youre a DB is you'd report a fat chick eating and not a hot chick eating. Get over yourself.
