“””Presumably, this gets around the 5th Amendment because they’re basically citing a vehicle, not a person, for the violation.”””

I don’t understand how it can be legal to make me guilty of anything done by someone driving my car.

That must be terrible for rental companies and I guess it will come to apply to skeet shotguns and baseball bats eventually.

Right. It doesn't make you guilty of anything more than that.

Rental car companies are fine with this. They charge your credit card for any fines or tolls that are accrued while you are driving their car.
