Correct, many states have their own databases. It was part of my job while in retail pharmacy in Oregon to check vaccination histories prior to giving them to verify they’re getting correct boosters at the right time

I suppose I should have put a /s tag on my comment

Just make no grugs or alcohol part of his bond conditions. He’ll break that pretty quick and give the judge even more leverage to lock him up, even if temporarily

The electric tax doesn’t go towards fixing roads, though. That’s why it needs to change, otherwise the only people paying into that are non-electric car owners.

I totally agree that the government shouldn’t have more of our data, so I looked up how the pilot program worked and honestly I’m not too mad about it. There are 3 options:

1. OBD-II device that reads your odometer and sends that in to be tracked. It has an OPTIONAL GPS which, if turned on, will make sure to only tax the miles driven in California (so it would not apply to miles while out of state). If turned off then all miles are taxed.

2. Car Telemetry that’s already in newer cars that can phone home and send the numbers in (This is my lease favorite)

3. You simply take a picture of your odometer and submit it. No invasion of privacy and seeing where you’re going. This is the one I like the best.
