And how exactly will they gather this information? Any GPS transponder can be left at home or wrapped in tinfoil. Make you go to a garage to report your odometer once a month? When you register your car? Will the Feds put cameras up on highways to register license plates?

So much leftism is just idiotic adolescent self-righteousness coupled with a naïve belief that reality is far simpler than it is. Simply absurd.

your cell phone can be used to track your movements so i assume it would be rather elentmary to require odometers transmit mileage as it happens to a central processing and billing agency.

The Libs never look that far in advance. Tax mileage. Sounds great. Let's go for it.

[I am okay with it. I am retired and seldom drive 30 miles per month, thanks COVID.]

Taxing mileage would be about like taxing the number of bites one takes out of a hamburger.

Libs: But it looks good on paper.

In Nevada we are required to report your vehicle mileage to renew your plates.

Annual tax with you renew your license plates.

Here in my lovely county we have to get our cars emissions checked every two years. The state records the mileage. Boom just now add tax!

That is the best definition of liberalism I have ever read!

All of my cars are old enough to be able to unhook the speedometer and just use a old GPS unit for mph.

This crap is still getting out of hand

All later model cars keep track of mileage.

Mine keeps track of mileage, fuel filter life, oil filter life, how many miles my trailer was attached, how many hours on the engine, how many of those hours were idling, average MPH....simple matter to compute for tax revenue.

What this really is: Another way to make living more than walking or bus distance from work so expensive everyone moves to town leaving land for the blessed.

And coupling this to the requirement that you have an electric vehicle just adds another cost.

Agenda 21.

Nevada already requires one to report the current odometer reading, under penalty of perjury when you register or re-register your vehicle.
