The expense of setting up and operating more inspection stations would be big, never mind being able to find the space for them along sections of the 400-series network that have denser land uses (or sites that won't cause traffic/safety issues).
Many trucks have GPS units now, but to use them for billing and fines would probably create a whole mess of legal issues.
I think it would be better to incentivize the through-trucks to use the 407, rather than try to penalize them for not using it.
