SF 1904 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Electric vehicles authorization to use high-occupancy and dynamic shoulder lanes without a fee

SF 1904 allows owners of all-electric vehicles to use high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes and dynamic shoulder lanes without paying a fee, provided they display a $24 decal issued by the state. The bill requires EV owners to apply for the decal (valid for four years, non-transferable) and specifies that only single-occupant all-electric vehicles qualify. It also mandates public outreach through signage, websites, auto dealers, and vehicle registration materials to inform owners about the program. This policy directly affects EV owners who wish to use these lanes without additional charges, while maintaining existing HOV lane rules for other vehicles.
