Automated speeding tickets will fix that quickly

Indeed. And automated driving will end a great deal of greed based revenue as well. And given the sensor data, proving lack of violation is trivial.

The $64k question is: what will states and counties do without police citation revenue?

Automated enforcement revenue will be much higher

Indeed, but when the automated system driving verifies real-time what the limits of the road are, it is trivial for an "Auto" to dispute and provide evidence.

The only thing these auto-scammers would get are human drivers not driving precisely and accurately.
