I suspect the overwhelming majority of crime reporting is citizens reporting other citizens, i.e. calling 911.

The problem here is offering monetary incentives. Purposefully or not, I'm sure judges would hand out a lot more fines if they got a cut out of it.

I can't wait until all the idling police officers, political figures, and the very people collecting the fines get drained dry by people calling. They want people to rat out people idling, lets start with government officials. Every single one of them should be ratted out at every possible opportunity before we out the general populace.
