Yes, for administrative legal reasons. That way, like a parking ticket, they can go after the owner of the car without knowing or caring who the driver was.

According to this it's treated just like a parking ticket and doesn't go on your record.

The law also treats violations caught by the cameras as parking violations, and they are not reflected on a driver's record.
