I always assumed the toll cameras were there to capture the license plate numbers of drivers that don't pay the toll / don't have the RFID toll sticker. edit:

I always assumed the toll cameras were there to capture the license plate numbers of drivers that don't pay the toll / don't have the RFID toll sticker. edit: I'm not suggesting that you're skipping out on the toll. They may be taking a photo at the same time as the attempt to scan the RFID sticker. And then sending a ticket to the scanned plate number if it fails to scan a RFID.

As of 2 or so years ago, there's a bright flash every time a car drives through (taking the pic from the front). In PA, license plates aren't required on the front of cars...so what's the point of taking the pic from the front? I also haven't noticed any pictures being taken from the back. My assumption of why they're doing this is to compile nice clean labeled facial recognition data for ML training. Not only that, they can scan other faces in the car to see who you're traveling with.
