The Arizona Use of HOV Lanes Initiative was not on the ballot in Arizona as an initiated state statute on November 3, 2020.

The ballot initiative would have allowed drivers of electric, hybrid, and light-duty vehicles to use high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes on highways, no matter the number of people in their vehicle. The ballot initiative would have also required the creation of a toll system for drivers of vehicles with less than two persons that want to use HOV lanes.[1]
