Outside that the "free rider" problem... how much do you think regular foot travel costs versus car travel.   A 200 pound person, vs a car that weights 1 or 2 tons.

Sidewalks are worth hundreds of millions of dollars in every major city.  Thats a lot of money that mororists have to pay for free riders.

And what about bicyclists?  I live in an urban area and bicycles are becoming more and more popular, especially with increases in travel costs.  GPS devices on bicycles or motorists pay for them to?

...

Gasoline is a private good.
