Some tires have RFID chips embedded in them with recycling information. But I don’t believe that RFID tags can be read with any reliability from the distance a plate reader operates at. Could the magnetic loop detectors embedded in the street be modified to do it? Maybe.
You flood it with all kinds of info and let them sort it out … give fake plates, funny plates, dumb plates, non plates, funny characters, random characters … if enough people did it all over the place, the system would get flooded with nonsense data that they would all have to sort through. Sure an electronic system could sort right through it in seconds … but it would be humans that would have to verify the computers confident answers (even if they are wrong).
These things also identify paint scratches and dents/stickers for when it can’t read the plates. I’m not so sure this would do much to poison the data
And they read the unique radio identifiers off of each of your tires

I’m not familiar with the ones you are talking about. The tire pressure sensors are meant to be read at a distance though.
