"A chalked tire was ephemeral. I doubt that whatever replaces it will be."
I suspect you are right and share your foreboding...
However, a very easy solution would be to just mark the asphalt around the tires ... maybe write "blue chevy" between the marks.
So easy.
Instead, a politically connected services firm will capture local mayors / council members (very, very cheaply - shockingly cheaply) and build it into their unnecessary speed/redlight camera systems.
