Seems reasonable to add some sort of fee for EVs, as we don't pay gas taxes, which -- even though they don't usually cover all road maintenance -- are as close as most states come to a use charge for roads.

As more people have EVs how do you expect the roads to be funded?

So entitled. It takes money to maintain the roads. If you are using the roads then you should help fund that.


raise the tolls as that tracks real usage, the other stuff is a cash grab with no audit trail of actual usage, ev should also not have to pay tolls we are saving the world


Tolls track real usage along tolled roads. Most roads are not tolled.


add tolls to all roads thanks


No thanks. EV owners can pay a nominal fee.

Don’t like it? Move to Texas where they don’t like to fund infrastructure.


the roads in this area are very bad more accountability and transparency of what is being paid would motivate tax payers to press vdot to do more and stop wasting money and acting slow, so yes everyone should know exactly what they are paying and it not be hidden on a fee or gas tax
