Maryland raised vehicle registration fees between 60 and 75% this month. The next time people register their vehicle, it will cost $221 for two years for small cars, up from $137. Bigger vehicles will be even more. There are now annual surcharges for electric vehicles, and a new fee for ride-hailing services.
The tobacco tax on a pack of cigarettes will also go up by $1.25 (up from $3.75 to $5), and the tax on vapes also went up.
The politicians are acting just like all the businesses that are also charging way too much for food, gas, and rent.
