This is a hilarious interpretation of how driving laws are enforced. I happen to know a lot of people in the racing / street car community, though I am not involved myself. As a matter of course, I've come to learn how they get ticket convictions less often than me and your average guy who barely speeds but gets caught once a decade by sheriff joe.
(1) They have GPS tracking of all camera locations with alerts at each one
(2) They use laser jammers
(3) They have the best radar detectors
(4) They all know the best lawyers for getting your tickets dropped and failing that
(5) They know how to approach the prosecutor for diversions
The much better, safer, driver gets the ticket and higher rates instead because they haven't revolved their driving experience over defeating the ticketing enforcement. And the 'justice' system is good with this because the end goal is revenue, not identifying problem drivers.
