I wouldn't count on it. I'm sure the police would be happy to help or even get their hands on some footage themselves, but in a lot of cases, it's not even recorded. At least in Brisbane its not. I had a car stolen from the side of the Pacific Motorway in a built up area The spot from which the car was stolen has a camera pointed directly at it and when I called the department who monitors the cameras, I was politely told its cheaper not to record the cameras, they are there for monitoring traffic when they are required. The number that are recorded was something like 5 or 6 between Brisbane CBD and the Gold Coast and the recordings are kept for 2 weeks. Thats it. Appauling.
It sucks that we live in a world where shitheads like 2ndOwner's commodore driver and my car theif can do what they do and not live up to the consequences.
