A $5000 per year flat fee sounds good.
That does sound good, but a mileage tax is more likely.
Insurance rates will also become a factor for EV’s. If they can’t be repaired cheaply and they are a fire risk, insurance rates will go up to pay for it. Not just auto insurance, but homeowner policies and freight carriers’ insurance could be impacted too. That is unless the gumment passes laws against the rate hikes, leaving us ICE owners to subsidize the farce.
