Free and discounted tolls!

[Chaconzies]

I have an internship in Downtown LA this summer and my Spark EV has saved me so much time and money. Living in Bellflower I can hop on the I-105 freeway carpool lane then take the I-110 express toll lane for FREE! Sometimes the tolls are nearly $10 in the morning! Luckily metroexpresslane I-110 is free for carpoolers with the switchable transponder and they allow HOV stickered cars. This saves me at least 20 minutes every morning and at least $10 a day. #WINNING

ffective February 24, 2014, vehicles displaying a DMV issued White or Green Clean Air Vehicle Decal http://www.dmv.ca.gov/vr/decal.htm will be toll-free. All vehicles, including Clean Air Vehicles, are required to have a FasTrak® transponder while traveling on the ExpressLanes. To ensure toll-free travel, set your transponder to switch position 3 (3+ person carpool) prior to starting your trip. Clean energy vehicles that do not have a Clean Air Vehicle Decal must drive with their transponder set according to their vehicle occupancy.

Don't forget the 10 freeway express lanes too! Also free parking at Long Beach Airport.

It's awesome!

That's great. MD gives an HOV sticker, but it's no good across the river in VA, and the way things work for me I am much more likely to need HOV in VA than in MD (haven't even put the sticker on my car).
