Road Tax * USA - Based on Usage Considered

New York,NY,USA -Forbes -May 19, 2011: -- Transportation Opportunities Act proposed $300M budget to study miles driven usage tax instead of current fuel surcharge. Proposal withdrawn when Administration considered this an additional tax instead of current policy replacement... Miles could be monitored by GPS and bills sent to driver... Billing could be directly to road providers similar to cell phone billing... Removing the government from allocation of road money from current tax system. Never tried in U.S.; currently being tested by 900K European drivers... Reforming current tax structure urgent; deserves government attention... (Picture from c1.gas2.org: semi-truck)
