Putting an insurance tax on gasoline wouldn't reward safe drivers. A kamikazi like Alex in a Toyota would pay less than a careful driver in a SUV.

Gasoline bought for farm equipment doesn't have the road taxes added on. At times a farmer might back his car up to the tank out by the barn and fill 'er up with some 60 cent gas. The state boys have figured that out and they do a dipstick test. Run a dipstick down into the tank and it better come out without any of the dye that is put in the tax free gas. State and federal fines like you can't believe.
