IMO, it's for the most part infective as the HOV lanes only go so far and eventually have to merge into the regular traffic lanes. where this happens traffic typically backs up for a mile or two.

I looked at the Wikipedia page that details some of the enforcement avoidance tactics the public tries, like mannequins and blow up dolls.
So what happened here was that the OP took the HOV lane but then decided nevermind, and that's against the rules? Not just driving the HOV lane alone but changing your mind, that's the infraction?
Yea that's pretty stupid
