I once read an article about some upity neighborhoods wanting cameras because they did not like having police cars "prancing" through thier community.
This article raises a good point, it is concievable that cameras at intersections will result in less of a police presence which may not entirely be a bad thing.

So, my first question is, would I be able to press charges against the police for stalking?

Law enforcement is not fundamentally corrupt. It is, however, fundamentally corruptable.
The Romans had a saying "Who will watch the watchers?"
You are kidding yourself if you think these types of systems will not be used in illegal ways.

Some people lick the jackboot that kicks them.

Infesting city streets with cameras is poor hygiene for a free country.
Much like you wouldn't cover the road in feces and not expect an outbreak of disease, you should also not cover the road with cameras and not expect an outbreak of tyranny.

Big Brother is the first thing that a lot of people will cry when they are caught doing something wrong. It seems to me that if people would simply play by the rules, (i.e. stop running the damned red lights!) there would be less opportunity and need for the government to get involved.

Police used cameras with face recognition technology at last year's Super Bowl to catch known fugitives.Exactly how many "known fugitives" were caught?

It seems that the police are decidedly unenthusiastic when the cameras are pointed at them as they go about their business.
