Maryland has something similar to that, it's called a personal property tax

So does Arkansas and Kansas :shock: and who knows how many more will jump on the wagon.

A lot of states have personal property tax. And it applies for people who live in the state. And for the most part only applies to things like vehicles and or personal property. IE your house and land. Which most states tax you on to begin with each and every year. So what is the big deal???

Why should a person have to pay personal property taxes to a state(s) they don't live or own personal property in? That is the big deal.

I agree, BUT these states figure YOU are earning money while you are driving thru THEIR state, and THEY want a piece of it, kind of like fuel taxes.

Apparently these laws got passed, and were probably slipped in without anyone knowing about them, until it was too late.

This is true as I called to verift the information. You need to be registered if your hauling freight into NY. Call 609-633-3646, it's called "trucker registration" It's $550.00 for the registration.

And the State of New Jersey has a surpluse of 348 million dollars according to their CAFR
