There's also dealing with the issue of federal and state losses from taxes from fuel, these will need to be offset. Between state and federal, it's anywhere from .40c or more per gallon in taxes now lost. That's money put towards roads and maintenance (somewhere). I imagine we're going to end up seeing a mileage use tax on EV's as well.

One of my side thoughts is ordinary people drive a lot more than they want to. The reason being is we don't ding businesses and housing developers directly for the commuter traffic they generate. Instead we focus on cars MPG and not on workplaces forcing their workers into 50-100 mile commutes. You end up with the bosses live five minutes away from work (convenient). And their employees live 30-50 miles away. And the boss never sees that cost on the corporate balance sheet.
