Yes it is! - it will make it either better or cheaper.

Better if you choose to pay, as you'll have nice empty roads to drive along, not cluttered up with the plebs who can't afford to pay, so you won't get held up by congestion.

Cheaper if you choose not to pay, and either travel by some cheaper means or not travel at all.

You choice! - what's not to like? OK, if you choose better it might be more expensive, or if you choose cheaper it might be worse, but you do have the choice.
