Ding ding ding, we have a winner.
The folks in Northern Virginia are also considering tolling every major public road. The irony is that quite a few major roads in the area started out as toll roads during Virginia's colonial period (for example, the Little River Turnpike and the Leesburg Pike).
All tolls would be electronic, with a sensor over the road to register vehicles with a device like an E-ZPass. Thompson believes the federal government will eventually require such devices in all vehicles.
That's disturbing.
But, they will require such devices under the guise of "saving the earth from climate change" and then use them to track everyone's every movement or even remotely commandeer and disable vehicles. Believe me, it can and will be done.
Government wants a Cost of Governemnt Adjustment.
The states want to charge per mile because the gas tax collections go down with fuel efficiency.
