It is commonly known that if you have an out of state plate you are more likely to be a target for a fine to fill the coffers, they think because you come from a long way off you won't appear in court to fight the ticket.
I was stopped in NY a few months back with Wisconsin plates, the cop said I had been doing 7 mph over the limit, when he saw my NY licence and realised I had only got to travel 30 miles to fight the ticket, he changed his mind and gave me a verbal warning.

Not really a surprise considering how many citys have underfunded their police departments.

They are not underfunded in our city.
