“The ‘users pay’ myth is deeply ingrained in U.S. transportation policy, shaping how billions of dollars in transportation funds are raised and spent each year,” said Tony Dutzik, co-author of the report and Senior Analyst at Frontier Group, a non-profit think tank. “More and more, though, all of us are bearing the cost of transportation in our tax bills, regardless of how much we drive.”
So drivers can go fuck themselves when they want to talk about bikes "paying their fair share." Once drivers pay the full costs of their emissions and infrastructure they can bitch about others not paying theirs. Until then, no dice. It doesn't matter whether the biker owns a car or not -- if they are living in a city they are paying all sorts of taxes directly or indirectly that go to finance the costs of the roads they ride on.
