Yeah, it's pretty stupid to assume that they wouldn't record your license number in some way. I wouldn't necessarily think that they'd check the lot daily, more that there would be a camera at the toll booth. Perhaps he thought that he'd be able to claim that he was only there for a day or two, pay that amount plus a minimal fine and be fine. Guess he'd have thought wrong.
