Pay for road use sounds to me like micromanagement - the kind that kills freedom.

People don't go out on the road for the pleasure of using the road. They want to reach a destination.
If the road network is efficient and plentiful they reach it with ease.
If the road network is inefficient they spend more time and miles.
This by mile taxing system would reward inefficiency of the road system.
Making shortcuts would reduce state income.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
