> That would be much better solution No, not from a monetary perspective. It simply wouldn't work, and that can't be ignored. I think a workable approach might be having two options a person could choose from: 1. GPS (cheaper if you drive out of state often), 2. based on total mileage traveled.

Why wouldn't that work? We already do it for fuel.

  Fuel is metered at the pump. Electricity going into a car can't be metered at every receptacle. For this to work, the metering would have to be in the car, with some government regulated system included in the power management. I think that's doable, but not for existing cars. A GPS could be easily installed in to any existing car, non-invasively, and mileage is already tracked.
