By the same logic in the article I think we should tax electric cars and bikes as ppl using them save more money than those driving petrol ones.

One state in Australia is looking to add taxes on low or zero emission vehicles (aka electric cars).

Fuel excises are used to fund roads, since electric cars don't use fuel, they don't generate revenue. Thus additional taxes are being contemplated.
