HOV laws don't state that the "person" has to exist outside the body, and since pro-birth states have deemed the fetus as a living person, why can't pregnant women use HOV lanes?



So cute.

Can pregnant women now have 2 seats on the metro? Or the bus?

I wonder if women in the process of adopting can count as 2 also.

Next you will say that pregnant women can’t enter bars or order alcohol.

Don’t stop fighting, ladies!


In many states retroactive support goes back 2 years. So if you time it right conception is included.

It’s HOV 3 now though, does the bill specify you need to be pregnant with twins to use? And does an old clear blue easy count as proof?

No pregnant woman is required to certify their pregnancy with VDOT. For HOV purposes, there must be proof of existence for all passengers. The "already born" have that proof because you can see their physical being. The unborn, since you can not see their physical being, require a different form of proof.

Any woman who does not use HOV lanes has no need to certify their pregnancy. Pregnant women who use the HOV lanes, but already have the required number of passengers, without counting their unborn child, also have no need to certify their pregnancy.


Well, according to this bill, if I'm pregnant and want to use HOV I have to. Next, they'll want women to prove they are married while pregnant to use the HOV. Then they'll have us wearing burkas. Then they'll say we can't drive. F^ck the GOP!


I have no problem with this. Have you seen some of the things people try to pull to avoid being caught in the HOV lanes? Blow up dolls, mannequins, etc....

I would not put it past some women to stuff a pillow up their shirt and claim pregnancy. If you want to drive in the HOV lane alone as a pregnant woman, then some kind of proof is needed that you are pregnant so that some activist doesn't try to file charges against an officer who pulls her over and asks for proof.


Then why not get a note/proof from her doctor and carry that around in case she gets stopped rather than have to register it with the government. You know, smaller government and all!


This is why:

(To avoid being given a citation when a camera captures the woman's image)

The Department shall establish a process whereby any pregnant woman who is the registered user of a toll collection device can certify to the Department that she is pregnant and flag such toll collection device as being used by a pregnant woman. The Department shall coordinate with all operators of photo-enforcement systems and establish a process to recognize any such woman as two people for determining occupancy in high-occupancy vehicle lanes and HOT lanes. Such woman shall not be issued any citation or required to refute a citation issued via a photo-enforcement system, provided that she has properly registered with the Department pursuant to this subsection.

Do all HOV lanes even have toll collection devices? I thought that was only EXPRESS lanes. Also, what happens after I get certified as being pregnant and then miscarry? How will they know? Seems like the proposed system is set up for cheating and unduly complicated and intrusive to boot. I wonder if I can take my frozen embryos from the fertility doctor with me and count that as a person. Hmmm...

My eggs are special, as is my Larlo, he’s gifted you know, so yes each one requires its own seat. But I’m reasonable so just two extra seats should suffice. That brings me to 3 occupants total. Free HOV yes.
