Lead on the TV news tonight: "Woman jailed for driving alone in the high-occupancy lane".
Truth: "Woman was jailed for not showing up for court; being arrested for failure to appear whichis contempt of court and changes release rules, and then not having money to pay fine".
The media fought for the high-occupancy lanes to be installed. Now they are shocked that the law is enforced! But it still was not what she was jailed for.
