I guess you could extract the bounding boxes for those images with gdal_info, but it would be much easier to set up a tilemill instance, load up a OSM bright style, then put the ECW images *on top* of that, so that they hide the underlaying OSM map. > After that’s sorted, I want to serve up maps with path and point data as an > overlay.

In the world of geo, you need to use an array of tools, not a magical one-size-fits-all tool. IMHO, one of your best bets is tilemill. You can load up some OSM extract, apply the OSM bright style, put some raster data on top (maybe convert those ECWs to another format to do so), then overlay your speed/accident data in another layer.
