Greg Abbott Signs Law Making EV Owners Pay for Their Gas-Free Cars

[AMart]

Since they don't pay gas taxes at the pump...............................

EV drivers in Texas don’t pay at the pump, but will have to start paying a significant annual fee that critics are calling “punitive.”

Driving an electric vehicle in Texas is soon to become more expensive. Governor Greg Abbott signed a law (SB 505) on May 13 instituting new fees for registering and owning EVs in the state. Under the bill, electric car owners will have to pay $400 upon registering their vehicle. Then, every subsequent year, EV drivers will have to shell out an additional $200. Both of those fees are on top of the cost of the standard annual registration renewal fees, which are $50.75 each year for most passenger cars and trucks.......................................................................................

I remember when it only cost $3 to for a state inspection.
Abbot is correct.
EV owners need to pay their "fair share."
Their cars cause wear on the roads also.
But, $400 is not enough.
It should be more.

I thought lefties liked more taxes?

 

[multivita-man]

Wait, didn't Tesla just move some of its operations to Austin because California was too woke and anti-business?

Abbot to Elon: Welcome to Texas, motherfucker, lol

 

[evenflow1969]

Well democrat here. My job for a good many years was maintaining roads bridges and sewers. They do not maintain themselves. Yes EV vehicles must pay their fair share. It is not a f you to anyone it is fair that they pay their fair share. However The average American pays $264 in gas taxes per year that us what it should be.

 

[hjmick]

It's going to happen in every state sooner or later. They've got to make up for their losses somehow. The more prevalent EVs become, the faster the new taxes will appear. This no big deal, think it of as paying the gas taxes upfront...

You should give up thinking...you're not very good at it.
