Are there designated spaces for carpooling?

Yes, there are designated spaces for carpooling in many places. These areas are commonly referred to as "carpool lanes" or "HOV (High Occupancy Vehicle) lanes." Carpool lanes are designated lanes on highways or roads specifically reserved for vehicles carrying multiple occupants. They encourage carpooling and provide a faster and more efficient transportation option by reducing congestion. In addition to carpool lanes, some schools, workplaces, and public facilities provide designated parking spaces exclusively for carpool vehicles. These spaces often offer convenient and preferential parking locations, encouraging people to share rides and reduce the number of vehicles on the road.
