Not sure about other places, but Australian cops have a quota. It means if you haven’t given out enough fines, you have to start handing out fines for jaywalking, swearing, and search any young person’s car because they probably have drugs. Had a friend who got pulled over for overtaking (lol) and they nearly pulled her car apart to search it. Found nothing, she wasn’t intoxicated in any way. Kinda defeats the purpose of having police if people are expected to be doing the wrong thing, but hey, it does give people more reasons to be nervous around cops.
