How do you not pay the gas tax if not a resident? Gas tax is included in the price at the pump and is not deducted for any reason. At least I have never seen that happen.

I'm guessing you missed the part about actually "living" in Washington. If you are someplace else you aren't paying Washington gas or sales tax.
