What do you mean it's a "right wing argument"? Here, I'll make it liberal hippy left wing for ya.
"I live downtown in a big city and ride my bike to work. Why should I pay for roads, expensive bridges and interchanges so some acreage living pickup driving pollution spewing suburbanite can get a free ride with my tax dollars?"
There. It's not left or right, it's a society problem. Plenty of roads in socialist utopias across the pond are toll funded.
