Good instinct. These, and a few other less-alarmist possibilities are specifically prohibited in the current proposal:

(d) The regulations adopted by the state board pursuant to subdivision (a) shall not require any of the following:

(1) The imposition of additional fees and taxes on any motor vehicle, fuel, or vehicle miles traveled, pursuant to this section or any other provision of law.

(2) A ban on the sale of any vehicle category in the state, specifically including, but not limited to, sport utility vehicles and light-duty trucks.

(3) A reduction in vehicle weight.

(4) A limitation on, or reduction of, the speed limit on any street or highway in the state.

(5) A limitation on, or reduction of, vehicle miles traveled.

AB 1493 text

The article artfully obscures that this was only in previous versions.

Thanks for the info. I was going to post it if someone hadn't already. I never take the word of whatever article is posted here. Always read the bill. I don't like this bill but the truth needs to be put forth not a bunch of false advertising.
