The vast, vast majority of roads are never touched by a freight truck. If you think of all of the roads built to support every house, apartment, suburban intersection they may cost upwards of a million dollars a mile to build but require little maintenance once built. So if you are only looking at who is incurring repair/maintenance cost, you are still only caring about a tiny cost center overall of DOTs. I'm not arguing that GPS is a good idea, but tying road income to overall road usage is a good positive incentive that we don't want to axe completely.
