Hybrid tax coming need help.

Wait till they start taxing you by the mile driven...

 

4nPower - Thank you for posting. I was not aware of this petition. I will re-post more prominently if I feel this is the official petition.

NOTE- This seems to be the old petition that was already posted on PriusChat. I will email state Senator Ebbin and Delegate Surovell to let them know the petition is still active. They do plan a repeal effort but the effort has not started yet to my knowledge. DO NOT sign this petition unless it is verified.

Governor McDonnell did not agree with the petition, he signed the bill anyways. But please note the hybrid fee amount was reduced to $64/yr by the Gov before he signed the bill, reflecting that the bill also reduced state gasoline taxes to 3.5% of wholesale, about the lowest gaso tax in the continental USA (those are the Governor's words, not mine).

As a tip, VA hybrid owners may want to log on to DMVnow.com and register 3-yrs ahead to get out of the fee increases for a while. You must do this by about July 1, and you can only do this if you are 6-months or less away from your due date to register.
