I can get behind this idea if and only if the government makes it absolutely trivial to request a human to review the ticket, with no additional fee and no attempt to dissuade people from exercising that right.
There should be a phone number, a QR code, and a printed link on the ticket that all provide a one-step process to contest a ticket. As soon as a ticket is contested it should be put on hold with no payment due until a follow-up ticket is issued by a human.
If we don't do this then we've just automated the creation of false positives without giving the victims of those false positives any equivalent advantage.

Also, if your appeal is found valid based on the video evidence, you should get the amount of the fine back from the government as a fee for them wasting your time.
