I still don't see what is wrong, it prevents congestion, it is fair and equal for everyone. And if they can charge based on license number, it is no more difficult to implement.

Isn't the goal here to have less cars in the zone? Thus goal is preventing them from entering. And giving everyone equal chance to win right of entry is fairest model.

But then you would completely lose the ability to plan ahead. You would not know how you were going to travel until the lottery results.
Shooting and killing a random 1% of drivers every day would also prevent congestion, and is fair and equal to everyone. There are other considerations though.
