Since politicians seem to be worried about ma roads fund them off gross offenders and leave folks an out by not adding additional taxes to small simple Or manual 2wd vehicles.

I'm always willing to engage in OT subjects. My idea is just increase gasoline tax. The method of taxation is already in place, and it closes the most loopholes because it's nearest to directly addressing the behavior we're trying to reduce; fuel consumption. That eliminates the need to dream up a never ending list of things to tax, and creative loopholes that avoid them, as well as the administrative overhead.
If taxes were high enough, people would be motivated to carpool.
