Ideally, but anyone who slams on the breaks after a near miss is going to drive off seconds later, and the train will continue on. Unfortunately, you can only challenge those that manage to drive into it. There may be cameras but I can't see them trying to ID every license plate they manage to capture, as that has a lot of complexities. It'll just take time for drivers in this city to get used to this.
Given that most close calls involve a driver driving illegally (e.g., improper turn, failure to yield). There is zero reason or justification for not ticketing them for that illegal and dangerous act.
