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).
