How Much Does the US Spend on Highways?
This might be worthy of a topic in itself - How much the US spends on roads?
An earlier post states the government (Federal?) takes 52 cents per gallon.
I have a 25-mile commute to work. When traffic is bad, about 15 miles of that is on the Bush Tollway (Hwy 190). I'm charged $1.50. Discounting the staff to man the toll booths, etc., 52 cents per gallon probably does not cover the cost of all the roads and bridges....
61.5mpg lifetime - 82mpg in recent months
