It would be cheaper to fly, literally.



Yes, but that landing/disembarkment at the 100 mile range maybe a bit rough on the hide, ya reckon?

If it's only 100 miles, yes. I was basically thinking cost-per-mile.

It is still prohibitively expensive, when other costs are factored in. Think of it this way. We pay taxes for roads in the price of gas. For those taxes to equal this, if your car gets 30 MPG, they would have to add $4.50 in taxes to a gallon of gas to match this toll.

That is nuts.
