Snyder Wants 60% Car Registration Fee Hike

Jerrytimes... I would prefer an increase in the gas tax rather than an increase in the registration fees. Why should retirees, who are on fixed incomes and drive significantly less than working folks, pay the same amount for road usage/repair, when they don't have to drive 20 miles to work every day, and put much less wear and tear on our rroadways.

But a gas tax would over years time be much more of a cost to most people than why Snyder is proposing, including seniors.
