Using car pool lanes

You can include carpool lanes (HOV or car

sharing lanes) in the route calculation.
If you use HOV or carpool lanes, please

observe the applicable laws as well as the

local and time limitation conditions.
Carpool lanes may only be used under certain

conditions. They can normally be used when

there are two people in the vehicle. However,

there are also carpool lanes which can only

be used when there are three or more people

in the vehicle. In California, lone drivers can

use a carpool lane if their vehicle's emission

level or fuel consumption is below a fixed

threshold.
Carpool lanes may be reserved for specific

times (e.g. during the peak period).
Carpool lanes are indicated by a diamond

symbol on specific road signs and on the road

surface. The road signs may also include the

designation CARPOOL. The lanes are

arranged as a separate lane next to the others

or are built as a physically separate lane.
Depending on the setting under

Use Car‐

pool Lanes

, COMAND uses carpool lanes

when calculating the route. During route guid-

ance, visual and audible driving directions
