[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In every State, road repairs and new road construction is largely paid for by gasoline taxes. This has some logic behind it as those who drive the most, pay the most. [b]In 20 years - the majority of the vehicles on the roads will not run on gasoline.[/b] Without that gas tax revenue, how do you pay for road repairs? [/quote] LOL, in 20 years the majority of vehicles on the road will still be plain old gas cars.[/quote] It will be anywhere from 40-50% by 2043. Industry analysts predict that by 2030, EVs will make up 50% of all passenger car sales and 10% of light-duty vehicle sales. Average life span of a car in 12 years so there is a considerable lag in replacement of existing fleet. [/quote]
