At first glance this seems like a very poor idea for two reasons.
First, along with already lower gasoline prices, it will reduce the incentive to depend more upon sustainable energy transportation sources and/or carpools.
Second, all of our roads and freeways are in dire need of repair. Why reduce the funding available for improving this infrastructure??
Did you read the article Sally? “The reality is that there is more than enough money available to repair our roads without raising taxes.”
Of course I read the article, Cam. I find Mr. Runner’s statement about having more than enough money available to repair our roads in total disagreement with both the statements of State Officials, as reported in The Signal this morning, and the July 2015 TRIP Study: BUMPY ROADS AHEAD (tripnet.org) which lists California as the second most expensive state for motorists, with the average annual cost per driver, for repairs due to poor road conditions in urban areas, to be over $1,000.
