AFAIK, there is no exemption that allows driving a 2-passenger car (like a
TR3) in a lane that requires 3 people.  The only exemption is for
motorcycles, and although there's some chance you could successfully argue
that a Spit met the state's definition of a motorcycle (has to be under 1500
pounds), I don't think it would apply to a TR3.

So basically, you're at the mercy of the CHP, with or without the jump seat.
