Do Not Cross HOV Buffer Sign
Vehicles must not cross into or out of the HOV lane through the marked buffer area.

What to Do
Use a designated entry or exit section instead of crossing the prohibited area.
A Detail to Remember
Being eligible to use an HOV lane does not make every point along it a legal access point.
Understanding Lane Use Signs
Lane-use signs work with the road markings. Match the arrow or symbol to your lane before the decision point, and choose a safe route if you cannot change lanes in time.
