So, a couple of things...
For a real time warning system, there's no need to actually record anything. Monitoring the video feed with no record capability should be fine.
Second, this sounds super easy to defeat with a printed photo card and a couple of Googley Eyes. 👀
"Super Easy to Defeat" is the now. They don't care about that.
They just need you to accept it, and move along.
In a few years time, it will not be "super easy to defeat" but will be standard practice and accepted law.
By that stage it will likely be too late to do anything. They will have tied it in with chat control and all of our data.

That's fine, people are under the mistaken impression that there are bad drivers that would deliberately cheat this, and good drivers like them that pay 100% attention to the road, the reality is there is that 99% of drivers are good drivers ok of the time and distracted drivers some of the time, if the 1% genuinely terrible drivers actively bypass this, it's still a major improvement for the those of us that share the road with the other 99%.
