Although I can see the arguments for and against this policy, this even if they live in another state is unacceptable. What right or power can the state of New York have to tax a driver in say Missouri or Nevada.

Agreed. The out of state aspect is outrageous.

Unless they do the same to the in state drivers this will
not stand due to the "equal protection clause" of the constitution.

This is blatantly taxation without representation. A court challenge should get rid of it and stop others in their tracks.

I am interested in your argument for this tax. What doesn't the speeding fine cover already?
