Yeah, those are a massive, MASSIVE concern when it comes to pervasive surveillance.
When I lived in the UK it already had a similar thing in the form of license-plate-reading cameras all over the place (the UK is even a biggest civil society surveillance dystopia than the US, or at least it used to be but maybe the US has caught up with it).
When driving in anywhere but dirt roads in such a country you absolutelly are almost constantly under surveillance and that shit is going into a database were it will stay forever and ever.
Redlight cameras, however, need not include "always on" or even "license plate reading" features.
