Hybrid car owners in California can increase the value of their cars by $4000 and reserve the privilege of travelling in car pool lanes, even if there’s only one person in the vehicle. How? The state has given out 85,000 stickers identifying eco-friendly vehicles. The sticker stays with the vehicle and increases resale value and gives drivers bonus incentives (like unrestricted car pool lane travel).  Carpool stickers allow the vehicle to cruise the HOV lanes in California even if there is only one person in the vehicle. The state gave out only 85,000 stickers, and the stickers stay with the vehicle, not the vehicle owner should he purchase a new Prius or another qualified vehicle. KBB's sample showed that a used Prius with the sticker will draw about $4,000 more in the sale price than a similar model. And now the California DMV is no longer accepting applications from Toyota Prius and Honda Civic Hybrid owners for carpool stickers. Agency officials say they are over the limit by 700 applications and no longer want motorists to apply.
