Toll roads do not need to have booths and pay stations. For regular users an electronic transponder system can bill them monthly. The 407 in Toronto also has a system in place which records non registered (transponder) users and bills them directly. They access registry information for billing purposes and apparently they can bill all plates (Ontario, rest of Canada and American.)
