We’re already taxed for the miles we drive through the taxes collected on the gas we buy to drive those miles.

But this is to tax the selfish Prius drivers who dodge the gas taxes but still use the roads we pay for. Start calling it a Prius tax, and it will die a well-deserved death (I'd call it a Volt tax, but the new GM will never sell enough of those dinosaurs for anyone to care).

Good point. They're nothing but freeloaders. Tax them more. If they can afford a prius, they can afford to pay extra. That should bring in the cash. ( I can just hear them whining already)
