Your green licence plate is a sign of your commitment to a cleaner Ontario.  Until June 30, 2016, electric vehicles with green plates will be granted access to HOV lanes on 400-series highways and the QEW, even if there is only one person in the car.  HOV lanes are otherwise reserved for vehicles carrying two or more people.
