not in every state, MORONthe proof is in the FACT that gas taxes also fund bus service and ferry's and other non road thingsProof of this?
They don't. Gas taxes (along with other taxes) go into a general fund and that general fund pays for other things.

thats how Texas does it
and the money from fuel taxes amore than cover the costs of the roads
even in your own link it said that

Care to link to how other states do it?
and the money from fuel taxes amore than cover the costs of the roads
even in your own link it said that
No, it didn't. It said, as I've repeated numerous times, that the fuel taxes go into a general fund which includes taxes from other sources, which then goes to pay for roads.
In fact, it specifically said that no road in texas is paid for exclusively through gas taxes. If no road in texas is paid for through gas taxes, how exactly do you come to the conclusion that gas taxes covers all the roads?
Yeah, Dive, see what wikipedia says about it.

im not gonna do research for you when you cant even get it from your own links
in his own link it said thisYeah, Dive, see what wikipedia says about it.
State motor fuel tax is collected from all over the state and goes into a single pool of revenue—about one quarter of which goes to fund education, and about three-quarters of which goes to the state’s highway fund, where it is spent on transportation uses and some non-transportation functions of government.

You really are just incredibly stupid, aren't you? I posted exactly where it said that no road in texas pays for itself via gas taxes, and you just can't understand that concept. Really rather sad, actually.

its said no INDIVIDUAL ROAD
which is like NO FUCKING SHIT
but only 3/4's of the revenue from fuel taxes go towards "transportation"
you are too fucking stupid

Really? Why is it "like no fucking shit" exactly?
Tell me this. If no road pays for itself, how do you come to the conclusion that all the roads together somehow pay for themselves?
And no...only 3/4 of the revenue of the general fund which include taxes other than fuel taxes go towards transportation.
Do Gas Taxes Cover the Costs of Roads?
The Texas highway department says no.
I thought this was interesting. The Texas highway department Texas, no less! -- says that roads simply dont pay for themselves.
Are all of our taxes going to fixing the roads?
A: We are all sensitive to the amount of taxes we pay, and some are downright upset. Statements similar to the following are frequently heard: I pay all these taxes; why cant I get my roads fixed?
Lets first look at which taxes go to maintain roads. The principal source of funding for the Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) and Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), is the Michigan Transportation Fund (MTF), which is made up primarily of the state fuel tax and license plate fees. These are also the main sources of road funds for Michigans cities and villages.
The state fuel tax is 19 cents per gallon and, thus, represents a fixed income to those entities. In fact, if you have purchased a new car in the last few years that gets better gas mileage than your previous one, odds are youre driving as much or more than before, but actually paying less in fuel tax to maintain the roads.
Some federal fuel tax revenues are available, but the bulk of these go only to MDOT for projects on state highways (freeways and roads with a M, I, or US in their name such as M-59, I-75, or US-24).
Many cities and villages supplement their MTF revenues with additional funds from their general fund or from some other source. They discovered long ago that the MTF revenues were not sufficient to maintain their street systems.
