NJ probably has a low tax since due to its small size many passing through could avoid filling up there if they wanted to.
Happy to see NJ in a positive light for once...
NJ makes up for a lot of the lower gas taxes with toll roads. It’s cheap to fill up your car, just not to drive it any appreciable distance.
It's pretty much the only stone left unturned in the state legislature's perpetual quest for more money to waste, squander and steal. Expect this to change.
(The $15 minimum cash toll for the Hudson river crossings has probably eliminated most of the traffic from NYC to buy cheap gas.)
New Jersey has low gas taxes because the Mafia has other ways to rob us
But the Mafia wants to raise the gas tax once it takes over Trenton again. They can’t stand that we pay so little compared to other states. It really does bother them. Gotta fill up the pockets of supporters, I mean the “Transportation Trust Fund”
Do you find it amazing that the Transportation Trust fund has been broke since 2008 and yet roads still get repaired? I have always figured it was just a piggy bank for corrupt politicians
