Lets also mention that the emergency lane is for law enforcement and ems personell to bypass standstill and gridlock traffic if the need to reach an emergency, say a shooting or accident with injuries arises.
Not so you can get home and let Fluffy out to take a dump on the begonias instead of your couch.
By condoning hijacking the EMERGENCY lane, you potentially endanger someone else's life when said hijacker finds himself cut off and blocked into said EMERGENCY lane.
Heaven help you too if those flashing lights appear in your rearview and you can't move out of their lane.
