Cars don't pay taxes. People pay taxes, and the last time I checked I was still paying the same gas, income, sales, etc., taxes that are used to fund roads that everyone else pays. Funny thing though is that when I am riding my bike I am not causing the same wear and tear (if any) on the roads as I am when I am driving. So in essense, I am taking less while still giving.
