This is just so wrong on so many levels...
One of the sad things is that they want to punish drivers of less efficient vehicles by charging them more in taxes. But what they hide is the fact that the driver of a less efficient vehicle already pays more in gasoline taxes by the mile they drive, since their vehicle gets fewer miles to the gallon. Hence they use more gas per mile traveled, and therefore pay more in taxes.
But just like the fact that there's always room for jello, there's always more room for more taxes, especially if you're trying to punish certain behaviors.
This is going to require putting GPS tranceivers in your car, which will be able to track everywhere you go. Leftists really hate privacy.

Elsewhere: “In interviews with the Democrat-Herald and others, James Whitty, the ODOT official in charge of the project, tried to assure the public that that was not in the plans.”
Yes...indeed...and when the police asked for Tasers, Tasering pre-teens and the wheelchair bound wasn’t in the plans -either.
