HOV does differ from the diamond lane concept something i did not know. There are no current statistics out about how much saving per vehicle in time wise this saves. Last reference i could find was in 1999 and that amount to a minute per mile it could very well be now the time savings 30sec or less during peak hours.
Hov was the most economical way to solve our traffic problem The problem has in the past been is seems as soon as we add a lane another is needed due to our growth.

Diamond lanes here are a disaster. They absolutely guarantee a traffic jam with an empty lane just to taunt you. Then all the police spend their days writing $300 tickets. They're happy making money so the police department can keep their officers on the newest BMW motorcycles.

On the other hand public transportation in SF is laid out very well. Overlapping systems that are easy to use. The only beef I have with that system is that the public trans workers are the worst. SF is the perfect place for institutional public funded failure.
