Virginia driver caught using HOV lane with dummy in passenger seat
FAIRFAX COUNTY, Va. - A Virginia driver was caught riding in an HOV lane alongside a passenger that a real dummy-- literally.
In a post on their Facebook page Wednesday, Fairfax county Police said, "Our Fairfax County Police Department spotted a dummy aiding an HOV violator. Officers report the hair gave it away." The accompanying photo shows a mannequin in business attire buckled into the passenger side of the car-- but he's missing his lower half.
The Virginia Department of Transportation says this is a no-no that will cost you $250 for the first violation of HOV lane rules.
