The difference is that for camera tracking you typically want a somewhat wider spread light which is more likely to bother people (unless of course you're shooting from far enough away to allow you to limit the spread). Using a highly directional photon cannon pointed up shouldn't bother many opposing drivers. Its just the people up in nosebleed seats that will get blasted.
