itwo-cent per gallon increase in the
State gasoline tax.will cost the averace motorist $13.32 a year as his
contribution
toward the cost of
bringing California’s highway sy->
\stem, up to date.
.
The Governor emphasized that he .
bad -personally recommended
any
. specific amount of gasoline tax intrease. He pointed out that the proposal for a two-cent increase is
contained in Senate Bill 5, now under consideration by a special session of the Legislature called by the
Governor to cope with the State’s
pressing highway construction problem.
Should the Legislature also vote
to increase the motor vehicle registration fee and establish a $1.50
fee for driver’s licenses, the average motorist’s total contribution
would come to approximately $18
per year of $1.50 per month, the
Governor disclosed. Both increases
are’ included in Senate Bill 5 as it
now stands.
Governor arren expressed the belief “that few motorists will be unwilling to share in the added cost
of making the State highways safe
for travel, provided that this cost is
equitably distributed among all
operators of motor vehicles in. proportion to their use of the highways.
He said that heavy trucks should
pay a greater share than passenger
eats to compensate for the heavier
strains they place upon. the _highways.
