Some legal sanity

Apparently, although a corporation is considered a person under the law of California, a corporation does not count as a passenger when it comes to satisfying a car pool lane requirement that a vehicle contain two or more people...

This is an issue with many science fictional implications, as has been explored to some extent.  I feel like I haven't read a really good takedown, though.
