Why do they take the fast lane on the interstate where I live in Nashville and make it an HOV lane durring the 2 busiest hours of the day?

I don't understand it!  Nobody carpools for the sole reason of being able to drive in that lane anyway!  Why effectively try to reduce the number of lanes available to 99% of the traffic durring rush hour.  Doesn't this defeat the whole purpose?

Who's genius idea was this?  This makes no sense to me!

Go to your local "adult book store".

Get a blow up "girlfriend" and now you are legal for the HOV lane AND you can have "fun" at home since you get home earlier.

HOV lanes are ridiculous.

It'll never work as long as the belief exists that we all should drive.

Did they ever finsih that stretch between Murfreesboro and Nashville?  Most of that shit is HOV covered, and it cost a lot of friggin money and about three years to make it that way.

BTW, I like the idea about the blowup doll... go with that

Consider it modivation if you have the ability to carpool..

Consider it "bending you over" if you have no possible way to carpool.
