The U.S. Code governing HOV lanes - 3/8/2008 9:42:29 AM    Yellotang Posts: 3150 Joined: 4/24/2006 Status: offline The U.S. Code governing HOV lanes-- Title 23, Section 166 (23USC166)--states agencies that govern HOV lanes must allow motorcycles to use the lanes unless they prove motorcycles pose a safety hazard on the lanes, and that proof is accepted by the U.S. Transportation Secretary following a Federal Register notice and public comment period on the ban. This is the Governing code that New York City is refusing to follow. Everyone in New York should contact Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg http://www.nyc.gov/portal/site/nycgov/menuitem.bd08ee7c7c1ffec87c4b36d501c789a0/index.jsp?doc_name=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nyc.gov%2Fhtml%2Fmail%2Fhtml%2Fmayor.html and Police Commissioner Raymond W. Kelly http://www.nyc.gov/html/mail/html/mailnypd.html And NewYork DOT (718) 966-6155 _____________________________ Post #: 1
