road tax is based on weight, power and fueltype. (and axle layout for trucks, steered axles are taxed less than unsteered axles.)

My rego is 666 dollars a year here in Australia.

> Weight fee

Fuck that shit. My car weighs as much as an aircraft carrier, I wouldn't even want to know what my fucking tags would cost there.

OH NO $260 TO REGISTER YOUR CAR

YOU POOR FUCKING SNOWFLAKE THAT'S NEARLY $20 A MONTH

YOU SHOULD GO ON A KILLING SPREE STARTING WITH YOURSELF

>>17302883
how is it commie to actually pay for what you get?
you pay to register, you pay to maintain registration and you pay to un-register or change status into not-driving.
all services that are executed by a person who needs to get paid.
the fact that it is mandatory to participate in these services seems rather trivial to me in relation as to wether or not you should pay for services.
and why it is mandatory? only in the communist world is the use of infrastructure free as in no money required. why would somebody who barely or even not uses the road pay for a buffoon who likes to toss around as much weight as possible?
to me it would seem utterly communist to just expect the state to do everything for you. let mother government tuck you in so you don't have to worry about what anything will cost.

>>17302970

Lol. I just paid $196 to register a vanity plate on a vehicle I don't drive because it's being worked on. If I don't renew, the vanity plate goes back in the pool.

Thanks Illinois!

I literally just payed that fee. 400 bucks for the entire thing including smog. Fuck this state

>>17303008
things should be free.
>otherwise its commie.
we can debate why things cost as much as they do but not wanting to pay is a purely childish/communist.
I have some news for you kiddo. The world is not a candy store. A lot of purchases you make require more than just a onetime payment when you buy them. Some things require maintenance, some things you need to put fuel in, some things are registered by the government. And that costs money. Some due diligence can be expected from civilians.
I maintain that if you want things from the government for free you are actually the communist. (which is just a political opinion. one i absolutely do not share, but to each his own.)
and believe me, i know it sucks that those registrations exist and are necessary. it is to prevent idiots driving around and killing people in deathtraps and to make sure everybody pays for the roads they use. off course it would be nice if it was free. but unfortunately nothing is free.
and you could say that when everybody uses about the same amount of all those services you could also pay them with general taxes to reduce overhead. but that's actually a step towards socialism that i'm definitely not comfortable with.

>tfw paying about $40/yr for my car and $20/yr for each of my bikes

>>17303331
Well obviously you get pulled over if you still drive it with expired tags, but if you let it sit without paying the Non-Op fee, when it comes time to reregister or do a title transfer you (or the new buyers) have to pay all the backfees from while it was sitting, not being used. Calijews know how to get their shekels.

You forgot the registration is quadrupling in price next year because governor brown tax. Also gas tax is going up 4x this after the governator raised registration fees a few years ago along with doubling state park camping and entrance fees to try and keep mexicnas out of state owned lands because they ruin everything with their 10 kids and garbage gang graffiti everywhere.

The new transportation taxes take a couple of different forms. The new gas tax takes effect Nov. 1, so that’s when drivers will see a bump of 12 cents per gallon. Diesel fuel tax goes up 20 cents a gallon, plus an additional 4 percent sales tax.

On top of new taxes at the pump, Californians will also pay more at car registration time starting Jan. 1. The new vehicle fees — there are two of them — are supposed to go to road repairs.

One, called a "Transportation Improvement Fee," is based on a car's value — from $25 for an aging econobox, to $175 for a luxury ride. Most car owners will pay less than $50 a year, state officials said.

The other fee is only for zero-emissions vehicles like those that run on electric batteries or compressed natural gas. Owners of those vehicles will be charged $100 a year starting in 2020

Despite Californians paying among the highest income taxes, sales taxes, and gas taxes in the nation, Jerry Brown's new gas tax raises the tax on fuel by 67% California's worst in the nation traffic. In fact, Brown's new gas tax legislation actually has specific language that will reduce lane capacity and increase traffic."

I paid $3.55 a gallon for regular today my county has a .30 clean air tax added to gas love California I will stay till I'm the last white man here. That shouldn't be long it's 78% Mexican now.

It's more like commie to base your payment on the value of your car.
Guess which wears out the road faster, sports cars or F-350's?
Yet somehow, the sports cars wind up paying far more to the state than the trucks do.
