I was wondering if the photos will be used to enforce seat belt laws also, but it appears the photo is probably too closely cropped on the face for that. The WSP has been extremely aggressive in handing out seat belt violations. However, at a recent traffic court I attended, every single one of the violations was dismissed or the def was found "not committed"! I do wear my seat belt; always have.

If the system is configured as “plate only” (no photo of driver), one obvious defense is that it wasn’t you behind the wheel. But judges aren’t going to buy that you loaned out the vehicle or had it stolen with no corroborating evidence. And a fabricated statement would be perjury.
