How are you folks dealing with this? Progressive Insurance floated that boat, but no way do I want the government knowing where I'm driving, how far, and simply were I am. If you want to tax, put up a toll booth, but that's not what they really want.
Freedom?
Some smart guy proposed a "pay at the pump auto insurance" program.
Let's say it cost you a nickle a gallon for basic state wide liability insurance.
That way, every everyone who drives is contributing to a no fault insurance program. The more you drive, the more you contribute to the general fund.
Even illegal drivers have to fill their tanks and pay into the fund. Of course the insurance company's shot it down.
And everyone will carry a siphon hose, only it'll be like the lottery to actually find a vehicle with gas in it to siphon...
A nickel per gallon is just marginal noise in the price these days, but of course a nickel becomes a quarter becomes a dollar in the blink of an eye.
Diesel Rabbits FTW!Yeah, don't own a single vehicle newer than 1983. Not to mention they get 45-55 mpg as they just happen to all be diesel. This won't fly in many cases.
Diesel Rabbits FTW!
While I agree with the sentiment that the government shouldnt track us, were still left with the underlying problem. Roads are paid for with gas taxes and electric cars dont buy gas. It is a miniscule problem now, but it probably will be a real problem in 10 years. Sure there are other methods like killing the gas tax and jacking up license fees, but those are blunt...
