- btbuilder 14y agoI was surprised to see the answer to this question in the CHP car pool FAQ: http://www.chp.ca.gov/html/answers.html http://www.chp.ca.gov/html/answers.html
- edent 14y agoInteresting. Guess that means that the corporation is the equivalent of a foetus. I'm sure there's a metaphor in there somewhere!
- praptak 14y agoYup, tested in court: http://www.snopes.com/autos/law/carpool.asp http://www.snopes.com/autos/law/carpool.asp "Dickinson chose to fight the ticket by asserting in court that Arizona traffic laws don't define what a person is, so the child inside her womb justified her use of the lane. Phoenix Municipal Court Judge Dennis Freeman used a "common sense" definition of the statutes governing use of HOV lanes in which an individual occupies a "separate and distinct" space in a vehicle. "The law is meant to fill empty space in a vehicle," Freeman said."
