Diamond Lane

A friend told me this story, which she said had appeared in the SF Chronicle. A man had legally incorporated his family. He then drove in carpool  lanes, which require two people in the vehicle, for several months with the incorporation papers riding shotgun in the front passenger seat. Finally he was stopped by the police and cited, although he carefully explained that there were two legal persons in the automobile. The case is pending. Someone else chimed in that in personhood states, a pregnant woman was two persons--wasn't she free to drive in diamond lanes? Let's hope that someone takes that question to our ridiculous Supreme Court.
