I live in Los Angeles, and we have some of the worst traffic in the country. I’ve seen that one reason for carpool lanes is to help traffic congestion, but I don’t understand since it seems traffic could be a lot better if we could all use every lane.
Why do we still use carpool lanes? Wouldn’t it drastically help our traffic to open all lanes?

The idea is to get less “drivers” off the road. Well, the challenge is the qualifying factor for 2+ people does not specify an age. So in many cases, the amount of drivers stay the same.
On a side note, it has been proven over and over that more lanes on a freeway does not alleviate traffic.
