Thread: Eventually you will be paying a road tax on miles driven

Currently you pay road,/transit taxes through fuel purchase at the gas station. As more and more people use electric, these funds will start to dwindle, once the balance is just right they will switch to a per mile/km fee, most likely at insurance purchase. It will cost as much if not more to drive an electric than gas from that point on. There is no way this wont happen, too much money at stake. Electric cars save right now. But not for long.

Book marked for the inevitable bump of tears in the future for electric carcels.

This state charges ev tax at registration time son.

They gonna get you either way.

OP i'm sure you are absolutely right, the gov is gonna get there money some way some how but i believe if they do implement it I wouldn't doubt that a lot of people would roll there odometers back on there vehicles

I'd say you're right. There's no way the government is going to lose out on all that bread.
I have to laugh at California pushing for all electric cars when they don't have a heavy enough power grid as it is.

yes someone else brought this point up, I know not everyone works 9-5 but there are chit loads who do, just lol when everyone plugs in at the same time in the afternoon on a hot day while A/Cs are running in homes.

Cops just doing their job man lol

all electric cars=control of movement

brb pay our ridiculous "miles driven tax" or sit your ass at home

brb youve reached your allotted miles allowance for the month, car is now inoperable. We're doing this for your own good cause Climate Change

brb you havent paid your tickets/taxes/registration/insurance/etc your car is now disabled via Over The Air update

brb another layer tracking your every inch driven on top of cell phones etc

brb using Space Xs Starlink to track you on or offroad (lol at people clammoring for Elons entire Earth internet coverage, have no idea what theyre begging for)

I despise electric vehicles, not because of what they are but because of what theyll be used for. Anyone who doesnt think theyll be used as a vessel of control is flat out lying to themselves.
