That's imagining this system in the most perfect light: shiny, new and not gamed.
The opportunities for misinformation and asymmetricality are huge. Don't like someone? Clone their license plate for a day and drive like an ass. How could you ever prove your innocence?
Loan your car to a friend and they could tarnish your reputation. It would make it inhibitive to share vehicles.
This is technology that drives us farther apart as people in favor of a few insurance companies making even more profit than they do already. Think critically.
It would also give police even more excuses to profile innocent people.
If you want people to drive more safely, then think up ways to get more people to drive more safely. Don't expand the surveillance mechanism to every moving vehicle.
