Wait one minute ... if you start taxing cyclists, will they start taxing me for walking on the road? Maybe place a sticker on my a$$? Put up toll booths on the sidewalks? What if you are walking a dog? Where do you put the sticker so they do not scratch it off? How about kids walking to school?

Politicians will tax anything they can think of, as long as the uproar is very small so they can be re-elected. If they believe their re-election chances will be greatly diminished by a new tax (license, fee, etc), it will NOT be implemented.
