In the United States, to ease congestion on busy highways, many cities have established high-occupancy lanes that only allow vehicles carrying two or more passengers to pass. The original intention of this move is to encourage more people to share vehicles and relieve traffic pressure. However, it has been put to good use by some older drivers. They placed a sex doll in the passenger seat and managed to "trick" the system into showing surveillance cameras at highway entrances.

This "invention" not only saves commuting time for veteran drivers, but also unexpectedly drives sales of discounted sex dolls . Sexdollpartner, an American sex doll retailer, said in an interview that due to a shortage of sex dolls, his company sold out some models for the first time in 30 years.
