Road Signs

On an Ontario provincial highway, an HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle) lane is reserved for vehicles carrying at least how many people?

Ontario road sign — Two people, including the driver
Show Answer & Explanation
Correct Answer: B. Two people, including the driver

Ontario provincial HOV lanes require a minimum of two occupants per vehicle (driver plus one or more passengers). This encourages carpooling, reduces congestion, and cuts emissions. Solo drivers caught in an HOV lane face a fine and demerit points.

Why the other answers are wrong

  • A.One person (the driver only)Solo drivers are not permitted in standard HOV lanes; some exceptions (motorcycles, taxis, green licence plates) exist but single-occupant cars are not.
  • C.Three people, including the driverThe Ontario provincial-highway minimum is two, not three; some U.S. HOV-3 lanes exist elsewhere but Ontario uses HOV-2.
  • D.Four people, including the driverFour occupants is not the Ontario HOV requirement; two is the provincial standard.
