Infrastructure is not unproductive, even machines need roads. I don't think self-driving vehicles should be exempt from road tax.

- bofadeez 10mo agoRoads should be (and are in many places) paid for with fuel excise taxes only. The more you drive, the more you pay.

- t-writescode 10mo agoOnly if it’s not an electric car. Electric cars need to start paying somehow, too. I’m open to many options, especially including weight * miles driven or similar.
- seanmcdirmid 10mo agoIn most states electric cars are paying via registration surcharges. For me, it’s a lot more than I would have paid via WA state’s gas tax since I don’t drive much. Miles driven would work out better.
