@humantransit I'd rather have higher registration fees for all cars and have them somehow tied to impact on roads and environment. A smart car that gets 35 mpg and weighs a ton should not cost as much to register as a 1-ton pickup that gets 11 mpg and weighs 5 tons. The cost of a hybrid could work on the same formula and a full electric would have to have a different structure.
@humantransit And while I'm on this soapbox, municipalities should not be allowed to (or should be discouraged from by voters) lump all "transportation" into the same bond or mill levy on a ballot. I vote against them all because they don't even tell me how much is going for bike lanes & public transit, but I fear if enough of us did, we'd be destroying the village to save it. Better still, don't pay for roads out of the general budget, pay for it out of the registration fees.
