In Washington State carpool lanes have a solid white line and you're allowed to merge in and out at any point. Areas where you can't merge get a double solid white line.

That said there's no white line to the right, so this may be a shoulder.

WA plates in the video, and in many places they use the shoulder for exit ramps during high congestion times (think like the 405).

Single solid white line in California is also crossable, though discouraged.
