I think the pay per mile system has some potential. However, I think a complete move to a milage tax would let a lot of SUV driving, gas guzzling people off the hook. Why not keep the gas tax, and add the milage tax? How does the milage tax discourage gas guzzlers from driving, or encourage them to buy fuel efficient cars?
Maybe we could also instigate a yearly property tax based on the vehicle's weight. Heavier vehicles cause more road dammage, its logical that they should pay for their share of repairs.
