The tracker will not only tell how many miles you drove but where you drove as well. THEN, it will be required for ICE drivers to have them installed as well. Only to make sure that EV drivers aren't been over-charged, of course.

And if they can track location in real time, they can tell how fast a vehicle is traveling at any moment on any given piece of road. If that happens to be over the posted speed limit for that road, well...

And then they’ll say you’ve driven enough, we’re shutting you down.

This gets the camel’s nose under the tent. Then it will be GPS trackers on ALL vehicles.

Don’t EVs have an odometer? Can the state not use that reading rather than track our collective a$$e$ all over the state? Purely academic question of course.

The per-mile tax was first investigated in Oregon.
Fascinating.

Texas is just going with a flat tax. They set it too low, but it’s a step in the right direction.

The party is over, Pal! EV mileage tracker and tax plus we (Oregon) are adding a marijuana surcharge tax to help out our struggling legal marijuana growers.

Wait till the EV owners find out that they have to pay for their own EV mileage tracker and legally approved installation. I figure $500 at least.

They are using EVs to open up what they hope will be universal for all motor vechiles - setting state fees and taxes by tracked mileage; requiring mileage tracking of all vehicles.

We need some means of taxing EVs for their share of the cost of maintaining the roads and related expenses. Hope they can find a way that does not invade privacy.
