minus-squaresushibowl@feddit.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up6·3 months agoIt’s a highway lane that you’re only allowed to drive on if you have multiple people driving in the car. So you could avoid traffic, for example. It’s supposed to reduce the number of cars on the road. There is one in Norway it seems, in Trondheim.
