Correct answer
No, it may be permanent and operate according to traffic needs.
The opening of HOV (High-Occupancy Vehicle) lanes is not always limited to being temporary and having fixed hours. These lanes may be established permanently or temporarily, and their hours may be fixed or adjusted according to traffic needs and conditions. HOV vehicles generally include cars intended to carry people, with a Maximum Authorised Mass (MAM) not exceeding 3,500 kg, and must carry the number of occupants specified for each section. Vehicles that usually have access to these lanes include motorcycles, cars and adaptable mixed-use vehicles carrying the required number of occupants, as well as buses regardless of the number of occupants and priority vehicles responding to emergencies.
