Yeah, I'm also happy to pay the 2.2c a km, it's bugger all in the long run and even into general revenue some of that goes to building/fixing roads. Clearly it is impractical not to collect on toll roads, but as they know that the vehicle is an EV and they know the length of the road, the toll road operator could discount the tolls for EVs? But then everyone else would want their fuel excise back as well, so also impractical.
I'm sure you'll be getting a road user charge in the near future as well, if they're talking about it then they are just waiting until the optics are better to introduce it. Silly thing is that Vic gov't also discount my rego by $100, so they lose the first 5k km basically.
