If we double the weight of all passenger vehicles, how would the damage they cause compare to large trucks? IIRC the ratio is currently 1:5000 to 1:10000 but trucks don't pay thousands of times more for registration or tax on fuel.

- protomyth 5y agoNo they don't, but they do pay a use tax on the fuel. Electrics aren't paying anything other than registration.
- notreallyserio 5y agoTotally. I'm just wondering if, given we know they don't currently assign costs appropriately, would they start when electric vehicles become the norm? If not, how far off would they be compared to now?
