I wouldn't mind more tax on gas if it was really used for roads and infrastructure, and maybe even funding more (and better) public transportation. But in many cases I suspect state constitutions would have to change to make use of the funds. That is certainly the case here in NH. And OTOH, we all know how taxes work in the hands of our self-absorbed elected officials who do whatever the richest PAC tells them to do. It's like giving them a check book with signed checks, and the money doesn't always go where it was meant to. Anyway...
I truly hate toll roads, but in some cases they do work well. We are about to insitute EZ Pass here and I'm hoping it works well. I plan to get a transponder as it will be a lot more convenient on regular trips in NY state. But sometimes the EZ Pass lanes on the Mass Pike, NY Thruway, and NYC Bridges are the ones that are backed up.
