And how much in road taxes are the people who drive electric cars paying??
This admirable concept has been badly broken for decades before the advent of modern hybrids and EVs. I doubt charging EV and hybrids by the mile will fix this problem. The gas taxes are being used for other things besides roads and bridges and the tax rate is to low (even if nothing was diverted) to cover the maintenance & repair costs of the roads and bridges we have now. No one is willing to pay the fuel tax rate that would be needed (I can hear the chant now, no tax increases).
