Many people think registration and gas taxes cover roadway expenses. Its why you see people complain “cyclists don’t pay their fair share for bike lanes”.

Must be a city thing, only reason people complain about bikes where I’m at is they sometimes like to use the center of the lane like a car but don’t follow traffic laws
