Toll as many roads as possible. Unpriced roads violate market principles, which creates over-use of roads, & quickly results in congestion. Pricing efficiently allocates road space & ensures higher-value car trips are not slowed by lower-value trips. Toll rds promote non-car travel, discourage sprawl, & create needed government revenue. As a user fee, it reduces the subsidy of roads by non-users.
