Total town income more than doubled from 2018 to 2020 – from $582,000 to more than $1.2 million – as fines and forfeitures rose 640%. ]

When I was in undergrad, I'd occasionally drive an hour on a back road, to/from college and home. There was one town where I would almost be pulled over, regardless of how fast or slow I was driving, just because it was late and I was the only one on the road. I never got a ticket, but was always pulled over for "driving a little bit too fast". On two occasions, I was pulled over by two separate cops within 5 minutes. Fuck that town!

You were lucky they didn't make you perform at the Boar’s Nest saloon.
