We are heading into an era where our true mileage, driving habits, where we drive and driving records will determine our vehicle insurance costs.

Left wing states like Oregone have advocated that drivers of all vehicles be taxed per mile to pay for road repair and damage from traffic. I believe that at one time the enviralists in Oregone were pushing to have GPS units in every car go log every mile, top speeds, average speed and where the mileage happened.

Progressive is pushing for its customers to install a meter/sensor that will give them data on each vehicle re driving habits plus mileage.

We have had State Farm for decades an about two years ago started sending in our odometer readings every quarter. We don’t drive that much retirees.

Of course no taxes will be eliminated. California on top of our abused road taxes charge sales tax on $ we buy.

As conservatives, we believe that if you use something that is paid for by our taxes, you should pay for your fair share.

We do have a problem when the liberals in charge use for example Road tax $’s to fund their wet dreams.

“Of course no taxes will be eliminated. California on top of our abused road taxes charge a sales tax on gas $ we spend.
