Tacking on to this note, an interesting aspect about EV's is that they
typically weight significantly more than ICE cars no?  Would this result in
more wear and tear on the roads, resulting in more spent on maintaining those
roads or is it all a drop in the bucket next to what the big rigs do on a
regular basis?  

So how are they planning on implementing that tax?  Do they send someone to
check on your odometer and then tax you based on the mileage?
