Presumably you could attach a fake number plate to your car, so getting
someone fined for something he didn't do. You would only need to put
the plate on for the time it took to drive past the camera, so the
chances of getting caught would be small.
Of course people might also falsely claim that this has been done to
them.
To counteract this, presumably the actual photographs will have to be
retained, not just the number from the licence plate. This will be a
more significant invasion of privacy.
