I want to improve MY driving experience, not SOMEBODY ELSE's driving experience. And no, taxes don't improve the driving experience, they make it worse.
The whole premise of the train, HOV lanes etc. is "let's pay someone to bear suffering and tax everyone else to pay for it". So all it does is redistributes suffering to different forms, some bear it in the "natural" way for money, the rest suffer by paying money. It doesn't do anything to REDUCE suffering.
