^^^^^^^^^THIS^^^^^^^^^^^Can't?? The Feds "can't" do a lot of things. But every day it is something new.
Just because they haven't yet doesn't mean that they won't or can't.

won't happen, it would create to much of an uproar from the voting public. more and more people are starting to want a "fair tax" system, my guess is we'll eventually move that direction.I know it's cool to post pics of tin foil hats, but the trend is to gather data about travel for multiple reasons. Your federal government is also spending 100s of millions currently investigating the viability of a per mile tax. It would be pretty simple to combine these two technologies. Under the plan you couldn't get gasoline unless your car is equipped with a tax meter.

I love the pretentious name of legislation now days - “Transportation Opportunities Act” creates the "Surface Transportation Revenue Alternatives Office".

Update 5:30 p.m. May 24: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration will require that all new vehicles have an event data recorder. The agency is at this point only considering such a requirement.
They do it everydayThey can't infringe on our right to keep and bear arms.
um...................there is an uproar over obama care, and a Florida court has already deemed it unconstitutional.Just like public uproar stopped Obamacare.

well, we all know what come next then don't we..........I know, I'm saying that even with a large amount of uproar, they still do what they want. So public uproar is clearly not keeping the Feds in line.
Are you all aware the current administration has proposed that a "black box" or GPS device be put into the vehicles and the reason they are offering is to tax you on miles driven?

Black boxes in cars raise privacy concernsWASHINGTON – The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) today proposed a new standard that would capture valuable safety-related data in the seconds before and during a motor vehicle crash. The proposed rule would require automakers to install event data recorders (EDRs) — devices that collect specific safety-related data — in all light passenger vehicles beginning September 1, 2014.
There's no opt-out. It's extremely difficult for car owners to disable the recorders. Although some vehicle models have had recorders since the early 1990s, a federal requirement that automakers disclose their existence in owner's manuals didn't go into effect until three months ago. Automakers that voluntarily put recorders in vehicles are also now required to gather a minimum of 15 types of data.
Will the black boxes lock you in the car and drive you to the Gov't slave camps too?
