I agree with most of the comments, electric vehicles need to pay for the repair and maintenance of the roads, so what is their fair share? So much a mile or a flat rate each year? I don't think bicycles do much damage to roads so I really do not think they should be taxed for road repairs.
Hey Charles, I agree with you on electric cars, and I suspect that congress will be imposing — or least discussing the merits of — a fee for the number of vehicle miles traveled instead of the gas tax… as for taxing bikes?
Well, my BBQ trailer does very little damage to the transporation infrastructure because I only pull it a dozen times a year, but I still pay registration fees…
