The test program uses a global positioning system to track miles driven, using a black box to calculate how many miles are clocked in-state, out of state and during rush hour.

A black box in every car, and a massively expensive computer system to track and consolidate the data. How much would that cost?

Can you imagine a terrorist strike on a GPS database used for such tax collection purposes? Politicians in Oregon would be demanding we nuke the entire middle East if it cramped their luxury standard of living on tax revenues.
