In time, the GPS method of charging may become
even more unpopular

Maybe this is a better way to increase car ownership but to reduce usage. That is car owner have to think thrice before driving their cars out of parking space and contributing to road congestion.

Yes, this would benefit motorists who drive less, and make usage more careful, thus leading to less congestion.
