ROAD USER AND PROPERTY TAXES ON SELECTED MOTOR VEHICLES

This report provides basic information for 1982 from each State on road-user taxes and property taxes levied on a selected group of vehicles. The intent is neither to weigh the merits of any of the taxes being reviewed nor to recommend any tax policy, but to supply the means to measure and compare the annual payments that would be made for each of 15 carefully selected vehicles in each State. By arranging these payments in a uniform manner, a useful research and planning tool is made available to highway administrators, legislators, and other who are concerned with highways and with vehicles and their use. The taxation information included for the vehicles, which range from a motorcycle to an 80,000 pound truck-trailer combination, is contained in the following: 1. Tables that show highway user and total taxes paid to each State; 2. Bar charts in which States are ranked by highway-user and total taxes paid; and 3. Maps that show ranges of highway-user and total taxes paid to each State. (Author)
