Who Pays for Roads Under New Highway Plan
L A C SAYS the 40,000 mile federal highway program may raise motorist costs. Current federal vehicle taxes total about $3 billion annually. President Kennedy proposes higher charges on trucking firms, passed to consumers via higher freight rates. Diesel tax would rise to 7 cents, tire tax to 10 cents per pound, retreading rubber taxed 10 cents per pound, and heavy vehicle use tax would rise to $5 per 1,000 pounds. Critics note this shifts cost to public and raises questions of who ultimately bears highway costs. The plan could lower the gasoline tax from 4 to 3 cents unless Congress acts.
