In California (and some other jurisdictions have similar rules), police cannot, by law make a warrantless arrest for a misdemeanor (with some specific exceptions, none of which is applicable to the pattern of offense at issue) unless the crime occurred in their presence, and prosecutors generally do not pursue misdemeanor warrants except in conjunction with broader investigations.
(If the offense occurs in the presence of a non-police witness, something that a casual observer would describe as a police arrest may occur after the witness reports to police, but that's actually a citizen’s arrest by the witness with police assistance. But a camera isn't a witness, and, as for police misdemeanor arrests, a citizens arrest for a misdemeanor also requires the offense to have occurred in the presence of the arresting party.)
