CA HOV Decals and CVRP Timeline

What is this good for?
I have 91 fast track now, do I still need fast track with the hov sticker?

Yes, except 91 express lane will no longer charge you while riding solo. You can also ride in any HOV Lane solo

That's cool..
I added the lightning as a clean air vehicle, is that all I need and a transponder?

Yes for the 91 express lanes that will work, anywhere else that has Fastrack will charge you and you can’t go into regular HOV lanes without the decal.

I tried getting away with just the clean air vehicle and quickly found out they were still charging me for going into express lanes somewhere else.

I only use 91 and 241

The transponders from other agencies will work with your transponders but will charge full rate even with an HOV sticker.

I have the 10/110 Fastrack transponder and it only gives 1/2 off the regular rate for EV + HOV sticker.

If I use my transponder on any other freeway, it will charge a full rate, without the penalty fees.

Anyone know if the CVRP has a limit per person or household ?

I ask because my '23 Mustang Mach E is being built and I got the $2k for the Lightning.

I just called the 91 Express lanes because they rejected my registration for not being a zero emissions vehicle. There was a code missing that they look for, Nice lady put me on hold and google the lightning and was able to add it. So now its free except on Monday threw Friday 4pm to 6pm. I only use it on the weekend so that's perfect for me.

Has anyone with a 2022 lightning pro received a CA HOV sticker. The dmv website says only platinum and 4wd models qualify?

any reason why the 2023 lightning is not on the CA HoV eligibility list, or does that update regularly?

No idea. But I think it’s just a matter of Ford sending documents to DMV for an update. You should be fine.

I wouldn't worry - it took awhile after Ford started the 2022 deliveries before it showed on the CA DMV HOV page.

My check was cashed 2 weeks ago should I be calling them?

I don't know about household limits but it's currently limited to one per person.

I bought my wife's EV under my name last year so I had to add her as a co-buyer at the dealership to submit the F150L under her name with CVRP per their instructions.
