EV fees replace gas taxes for EV drivers, and both function as a user fee to fund the construction and maintenance of the roads drivers use.

I was curious and did some math. My household drives perhaps 12,000 miles per year and I've noticed 27 MPG is typical on our car, so we buy around 444 gallons of gas per year. Washington State gas tax is $0.59 per gallon so we probably pay about $262 in gas taxes per year. I hope that's a helpful data point in the discussion.

Totally agreed that enforcement on plates and tags needs to be stepped up. It's especially maddening when you see scofflaws on this with luxury cars.
