Check out State v. Atwater, in which a jack-booted thug local Deputy Dawg made a physical arrest on a soccer mom for the heinous offense of failing to wear a seatbelt. The conservative members of the Supreme Court said that was just hunky-dory.

Then, review the numerous assaults on the Fourth Amendment given to us by conservative judges.

By what provision was that unconstitional?

'Tis truth!! It happened right here in little ole Texas.

Now that policeman 'took a bite out of crime' with the help of the Supreme Court.

If I were a police officer, I would be ashamed to give a seat belt ticket, or a 10 miles over the limit (on a highway) speeding ticket. This is not law enforcement, it is revenue gathering. And I don't see them giving tickets to old, beat-up carloads of people who cannot, and will not pay the fine. They pick and choose their 'victims.'
