For anyone in Arizona who is grandfathered into driving in the car pool lane, as of early March it will end.

Those of us who are grandfathered (like me with my 530e) can continue to drive in the car pool lane but any new car will have to be a BEV.

I was toying with the idea of upgrading to the supposed new 545e but now, that will not happen. I will be keeping my 530e for much longer.

So if any of you are in Arizona, and grandfathered, keep this in mind.

PS The alleged reason for the change is federal law that requires states to only allow usage of the HOV lanes if they are not too congested. So folks in other states may also be impacted.
