I think this could work to guarantee everyone pays their fare share.I’m not 100% certain how miles driven should be tracked though. Obviously the odometer, but does the driver report that or the person doing the inspection? How do you make sure accurate reporting is being done?
Agreed, my other concern is where those miles are being driven. If you live on a border, reg the car in one state, but drive 50% of the time in the other…
I figure it would be something where commerical drivers submit milage reports for the year. Personal transportation would have the option of having the odometer checked, self submitting their odometer readings, or paying for the average milage for the state.
That I think could work. My immediate thought was those mid income who are still pretty much paycheck to paycheck that have to commute because where they work has too high a COL for their income would be hit hard by this, but if there’s an option to pay average then they’d be ok.
