Yup. I was definitely surprised at the puny suggested increases. If they are goint to increase registration costs, it should also not be merely "if >6000 Lbs, increase $500", but a formula steadily increasing the cost so that mfgrs don't merely post the 'official' curb weight 10Lbs under the threshold. So, something more like $10/year for every 100 Lbs over one ton curb weight. It'd be even better to do this via fees combined with a congestion tax system. This has worked very well for many cities to charge road use tolls higher in congested times, therefore motivating people to not use vehicles if they can avoid it. In this case, just increase the costs based also on vehicle weight, so the heavy vehicles have higher fees even at 3AM. Plus, this will avoid people avoiding it by registering their beast at their out-of-city home, or their brother's address or something.
