Oregon proposal is before the legislature again. It's a hightech tax grab in the face of expected declining gasoline taxrevenues."The systems employ wireless technology to calculate how many miles avehicle travels between refueling, then automatically read this data,compute a total fee, and add this fee to the cost of fuel while avehicle is at the fuel pump." James M. Whitty with the Road User Fee Task Force is the prick incharge of planning this high tech revenue grab.- Philip @ Maximum Torque RPM
