Would be nice to see them incorporate some sort of fee for people who use studs and bicyclists also. I understand bicycles don't do much harm to the roads, but they still use them, and there are costs involved in creating and maintaining bike lanes.

I don't like it.
It's punishing people for driving smaller more fuel efficient vehicles.
That's ass backwards of what we need to be doing IMO.
