Mileage-Minding Government?

Mileage-minding government?

Good questions by Conservative Crank.

Let's see...

We'll need a sensor in every car, interfacing with sensors along the roads, so we can keep track of every mile every car travels. That's a good start.

We'll have to have remote ignition kill-switches so cars can be disabled for non-payment of taxes. Or anything else we might need like that.

And don't think you'll get away with anything. The road-monitoring computers will immediately alert the authorities to any un-monitored vehicles.

The collected road taxes and fines should be able to pay off the infrastructure costs for all this by the time the universal monorail system has replaced the car.

Roads? Where you're going, you don't need roads.
