Its a great way for the state to make money while increasing the efficiency of the hov lane. Right now there are no limits for the lane.
I don't know how many additional people will start commuting because of this option. I would think that number would be negligible, but that's yet to be seen.

From what I know the toll will be variable depending on when you use it, how many miles you use it, etc. I'm just saying with all the high income people that live in NoVa I wouldn't doubt that many of them wouldn't mind paying extra to shorten their commute time. Most of my info comes from here:
