1. The oft-used slippery-slope argument.
2. F ups in the system. (Hence the 1984 reference).
3. Corporations getting ahold of such information (insurance companies, etc.).

Like having a black box in your car. I'm sure it reduces speeding quite a bit, but if your auto insurance company knows that you have a tendency to brake hard, finding a cheap rate could be difficult.
