I think the "punish all car drivers" thing will ultimately catch on. It seems to be becomming the popular opinion.
I think that's sad and damaging though. I suspect the people that are stacking up the big miles (using lots of gas) are people that can't afford to live in town and are trying to work their way up: trades/self-employed, delivery drivers, hire car drivers i.e. your junior nurse, handyman, school teacher or uber driver.
And most of them will never even be involved in a serious accident.
