Discriminatory. This closes the roads to all but the rich. Why not fix the roads to support the traffic instead of squeezing people? I-66 and I-495 variable tolls are wrong.
And yes, as a former 19-year resident, I remember the stupid agreements they wrote to limit widening I-66. How about run the Metro out to Chantilly and Manassas? And a Metro around the beltway as well.

What’s to fix? Too many people using too few roads, with little room for further expansion. Most of what happens in DC can be done remotely.

This opens the roads to the poor while allowing rich people to pay for the same trip, getting them off the free road.

I love voluntary taxes. You should, too.

Of course, you could increase taxes for all non-users and let the rich ride for free, as you appear to desire. Frankly, your attitude is sick.
