Yeah, fuel taxes are supposed to pay for that. Given the state of the roads at least here in California, it sure doesn’t look like it happens.

    I’m also in California and would agree. The word “supposed” is doing a lot of work there.

    On the other hand, with so many EVs in California we have to at least consider a part of that is because of the loss of gas tax income.
