I imagine that is an issue but these days you have plug-in electrics and now the push to
home CNG filling stations for CNG fueled vehicles. Wonder how they are assessing road tax
on those vehicles? I know when I used to run a vehicle on propane, I had to buy from
propane "motor fuel" stations, although some times you could fill up at a regular bottle
gas place. Problem there was the motor fuel was less expensive than the bottle gas even
with the road tax added, since you were paying bulk vs. retail+sales tax pricing.
