What do all you CA drivers think of this plan?
Here's the story:

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/...in674120.shtml

Basically, CA is considering a "tax by the mile" system. Cars are being outfitted with global positioning software that will track miles and where people are driving - higher traffic areas may equal a bigger tax. Apparently the software would communicate with the gas pump and add the tax when you fill up.

Hmmm....I drive very little - I work from a home office and we live two miles from the school my wife teaches at and my kids go to. But I have a bad feeling about this. Not to mention I live in AZ, but we have a tendency to try stupid things that CA has tried all the time.
