Looks like you're from Wales. Here's a great national site that you can see the live traffic cameras:

Just filter the map by CCTV and choose the icon to view the live video.

Enjoy!

Seems like a single photo only for each camera, no "live"?

Most developed countries have similar systems in place. Heck, I'd wager that the US is lagging behind other countries in this area, primarily due to its size.

What is this list of most countries? I am certain this is illegal in Sweden, for example.

About 5 seconds of googling yielded these street cameras in Sweden:

Having cameras and having an effective tracking system based on them is a big difference. (No idea about the swedish situation, but in Germany proposals to give police access to information from traffic enforcement cameras for criminal cases have been a huge topic)

If I can access the feed I can build a tracking system (how effective it is, is always a big variable).

No, but there are plenty of cameras in South Wales.
