NJ Mileage-Based User Fee Pilot Program
July 15, 2022
Fuel tax has largely been responsible for a well-functioning transportation system that gets you to where you need to go, delivers packages to your door, and keeps groceries on the shelves. But as vehicles go farther on less fuel and some stop using any fuel at all, it becomes harder to maintain our transportation system.
The Eastern Transportation Coalition, a partnership of 17 states and Washington D.C., needs your help to explore an alternative approach, called a
Mileage-Based User Fee (MBUF). A Mileage-Based User Fee means each driver pays for the miles they drive instead of the fuel they buy. To better understand how an MBUF program could work, the Coalition is conducting a Pilot Program in New Jersey and they want you to join and tell them what you think. It is free to participate, and there are strict privacy protection measures to safeguard your data. Here’s how to join the Pilot in four easy steps:
- Enroll - Fill out the enrollment form by clicking the link on the website.
- Insert - Plug a small device into your vehicle to record mileage.
- Drive - Then drive as you normally do.
- Return - After a few months, mail back the device.
