What it does
The bill would extend the authorization for certain alternative fuel and clean vehicles to use high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes by amending federal law to change the expiration date from September 30, 2025, to September 30, 2031. It affects owners and operators of eligible alternative fuel and clean vehicles who currently benefit from HOV lane exemptions. The change continues an existing policy allowing these vehicles to access HOV facilities regardless of occupancy requirements, without altering other eligibility criteria.
