The Road Ahead Needs
"A Better Plan"Ask Your Elected Officials to Oppose the Vehicle Mileage Tax
WHAT IS THE VEHICLE MILEAGE TAX?
San Diego Elected Officials are looking to impose a new VEHICLE MILEAGE TAX to charge drivers PER MILE that we drive. This pilot program will then be implemented for all California drivers.
80-cent-per-gallon INCREASE
The Vehicle Mileage Tax would require tracking every driver's mileage and charging them $0.04-$0.06 per mile they drive. That is the equivalent of an $0.80 per gallon increase in gas tax.$600-800 a year
The typical San Diegan driver will be forced to pay $600-800 more a year to drive on roads they already paid for with the original gas and sales taxes. When added with the current car and gas tax, a two-car family is looking at over $3,000 a year in taxes.
LOSS OF PRIVACY
The Mileage Tax is an invasion of privacy with a tracking requirement that is still being decided by the government. Proposals include a device installed in every vehicle, a tracking app on cell phones, or your odometer being inspected annually.

WHAT THEY SAY...
We asked SANDAG hard-hitting questions about their Vehicle Mileage Tax proposal including:
- Do residents of San Diego vote on the vehicle mileage tax?
- Has SANDAG considered the effect the VMT will have on employees having to commute to work, which would then extend to employers?
- Will the statement, "SANDAG plays games," just made by a SANDAG official in regards to funding, be explained?
The VMT would take over $27 Billion from tax payers.
