What about Idaho drivers

Sat., May 2, 2015

Regarding the proposed $5 studded tire fee, my question would be: What do we do with all the Idaho drivers with studded tires coming to Spokane to work and play?

Washington now wants $5-per-tire to buy studded tires, to save the roads, while people from Idaho come and go and tear up our roads and not pay a dime.

Maybe we can go to Idaho and buy our tires, booze and cigarettes. They seem to be getting more and more of our money. Give us a break; we live here.
