Car Charging Smart Roads--The future of transportation

10. The induction coils used to sense vehicles at traffic lights are low power.

Therefore the electromagnetic field strength is low. Not enough to transfer any meaningful amount of energy to a vehicle sitting above them.

To charge EV batteries the field strength would have to be much higher. I would expect the EVs to have charging coils mounted underneath. Passengers & vehicle contents would be subjected to greater EM fields, but field strength decreases with the inverse square of the distance from the source, so the amplitude decreases fairly quickly.
