In Rome they have this system. There are cameras over every street that enters the historic center. Sounds expensive, and perhaps this is not necessarily the way to do it, but I'm starting to warm up to the idea.
Toronto has a system for the express highways. An electronic device in your car that basically proves payment for the toll for that road. Without the device, you get mailed a bill for the toll.

If we're going to go the toll road system i'd like my portion of federal and provincial infrastructure tax money to be directed to the town i live in as opposed to Calgary. I would hate to pay a toll where the money would be going towards something i've already made a contribution to.
