Have you ever had to drive a U-Haul truck? Somehow I always seem to get the one with the speed limiter on it. And you’re right - not being able to accelerate in certain circumstances can be very stressful.
I actually wouldn’t have minded $120/year since TX gas tax is $0.20/gallon. At 20 MPG, that works out to 12K miles, which seems fair. I always felt that EVs should pay for road use when I had an ICE car, so I can’t complain now :).
The thing that kills me is that Austin is taking car lanes away...
