What they are trying to do is to restrict/discourage driving.

That does make sense. Of course, if they were really interested in solving traffic problems they'd look at ideas like congestion pricing, rather than charging the same amount per mile during rush hour and at midnight. So it looks like this is a Big Brother program to track us, or an environmentalist wacko social engineering scheme to make us ride bicycles. (And those aren't mutally exclusive).

Congestion pricing will probably be part of this scheme.

This is the essence of it:

EVERY ROAD A TOLL ROAD

They want to force people out of their cars, by any means necessary.
