    The driver was pulled over during Thursday morning rush hour on the Long Island Expressway in Dix Hills. Suffolk County police say the woman was driving in a high-occupancy vehicle lane, which is restricted for travel during busy times unless a driver has a passenger.

    Police say the dummy was made with a pile of clothes topped with a baseball hat.

    The fake front seat passenger even had a briefcase.

    However, the dummy was not wearing a seat belt in photos issued by police.

    She was bound to be caught…. looks more like a stash for the dry cleaners or laundromat.
