Washington State Trooper Rick Johnson pulled over a speeding driver in the carpool lane. Of course, there have to be at least two people in the vehicle to legally use it. A non-sentient life-sized dinosaur does not qualify as a human. However, you have to applaud this driver for being committed to safety (outside of the speeding thing) by remembering to fasten Barney's seatbelt.
