The funds for highway maintenance are not cutting the mustard any longer because of more fuel efficient vehicles. But the problem is that while people are driving slightly less than they used to, it isn't enough to make up for the lack of funding for keeping the roads in repair. So we're going to see an increase somewhere regardless.
Taxes are always debatable. Some of us want to pay less and some of you don't Mind paying more so the gov can waste it .... (I would assume you don't mind paying more taxes) But tracking is a problem and this opens up to that.... When I was with progressive they had the little device to use for a discount .... So they could gather my data..... I refused that multiple times.
