The damage done by heavy vehicles is disproportionate to their weight and fuel use. The current system is clearly broken but we shrug when tens of thousands of people die every year, carbon emissions continue to rise, and our roads are disintegrating.

Also the gas tax fluctuates based on prices but road wear does not.

Everything (?) is taxed multiple times at some point. How does that matter in this context?
