We don’t all drive smart cars though that is where they are leading us, so are we going to have to install a meter like a taxi has?
If they could figure out a way to tax the air we breath they would do it.
Maybe. I just renewed my auto insurance & while talking with the agent, he wanted our odometer readings. He also mentioned that in the future we wouldn't need to report, because every time we take our car to be serviced, the odometer reading would be reported to the "authorities". I didn't ask, so I'm not sure if that is just a CA thing or a national thing, or exactly who the "authorities" are. I should follow up.
Watch for it...
