Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The majority of funding for road building and maintenance in the U.S. comes from gas taxes paid by drivers at the pump. These taxes are specifically intended to go towards the upkeep of roads and highways. Vehicle registration fees and vehicle sales taxes may also contribute to transportation funding, but to a lesser extent. General revenues, which come from a variety of sources including income and property taxes, may also be used for transportation projects but are not dedicated solely to road maintenance and construction.
