I can understand that. The road upkeep situation is WAY behind optimum.

Isn’t the problem that the gas tax has not kept up with inflation? Like the sales tax, the gas tax is a regressive tax — but it can be worse than the sales tax. After all, in general, people who are less affluent find themselves with vehicles that have worse mileage, and therefore are likely to be purchasing more gasoline and therefore contributing disproportionately more to repair roads
