It pays to live in California...

The controversial bill AB 1421 just passed the California Assembly and heading to the Senate.

This bill will tax you on mileage driven. Now, some will say that this bill will only advances the study of a mileage tax and extends the "Road Usage Charge Technical Advisory Committee" until January 2035. However, California's mileage tax pilot began in 2014... now, they are still claiming that this bill will only extend the study? They have been studying it for the last 10yrs. Don't CA already tax their gas/gal?

So, if this bill does passed the Senate and a tax is implemented... how will that look like? I believe every residence of CA (no matter your income level) will pay these mileage tax, some are saying that the average CA driver put around 15,000/year... that could equate to $900- $1,200 tax. And how are they going to track you? Every vehicle might be equipped with a tracking device... just like how Progressive Ins. did to their clients if these clients want to get a discount on premium - however, Progressive only track you 1-2 weeks.

All I have to say is 'good luck' with the new tax...
