No mention of banning gas-powered ICE motorcycles, I note. Did the state forget about motorcycles or (as is typical) are they just not on their radars?

Picking up and implementing that missing road tax is going to be an issue for the state. It will likely be much longer than 2030 before EV sales in the state reach 75%. And what is their plan for dealing with trucks, both large pickups, delivery vans and other commercial vehicles? Lots of issues to sort out before 2030.

Washington already added an EV fee, unless they took it off again...
