This will not be able to differentiate if it was VW hatchback A that entered the highway at ramp Z or Peugeot hatchback B entering from ramp X. It also cannot tell a VW up from a Skoda CitiGo or any of the bazillion similar design and mass vehicles between different brands and models. This is completely useless as a surveillance technology there are way too many variables introducing noise that you don't have the ability to filter on because signatures will be way too similar between thousands of vehicles using hundreds of on/off ramps.
