I'm more concerned about error rates and false accusations

Doesn't it say that each image is sent to a human for review before any charges are laid? Might not be the case forever, but at least for now it's actually a human who ultimately decides whether or not to prosecute a driver.

That's the important part for me. As long as the whole process isn't automated I'm fine with it.

This has always been the case for road cameras in the UK from the start from when we first had speed cameras introduced, before they are sent out they are (supposed to be) reviewed by a person first to check for false positives.
