That's just weird. Won't fly at all.

I think tax by gross vehicle weight is fairer -- assuming one has to tax at all. That relates the tax to the actual damage done.

These driver-related taxes are always presented as 'designated to fix our roads' but somehow, the money never gets there. Insted, the "tax" we get is accelerated damage to our tires, suspension and chassis from terrible roads.
