Why were toll booths invented?

A toll road (or tollway, turnpike, toll highway or an express toll route) is a privately or publicly built road for which a driver pays a toll (a fee) for use.

The building or facility in which a toll is collected may be called a toll booth, toll house, toll plaza, toll station, toll bar or toll gate.So a toll booth was invented in order to collect taxes to pay for the building of roads.
