These also have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. I'm convinced that they also connect mac addresses of your devices to determine who is driving. I also suspect that they use facial recognition when possible.

Don't most modern Phones randomize their Mac Address for every wifi? My Samsung does by default, you need to manually disable it so you don't get thrown into the captive portal every time you reconnect to a public wifi

The facial recognition would be done by whoever they send footage to.

Wouldn't be shocked about the hardware addresses though.

The cameras themselves are simply trail cameras with GPS and a cell signal. The images get sent to a server for processing. I'm also sure that they send at least some images to be read by humans manually.
