People who don’t drive don’t pay any of those taxes that were used as examples. I’d love to see the numbers that you’re basing your argument on.

Let me google that for you: https://frontiergroup.org/resources/who-pays-roads/
There are literally tens of thousands of articles like this one.
TLDR:
- less than 50% of car infrastructure cost is paid for by driving related taxes
- An average of $1100 in general tax per household per year is used to subsidise driving
- Car infrastructure receives more subsidies from general tax than transit, passenger rail, cycling and pedestrian programs combined.
No, drivers pull their own weight in regards to car related taxes.
