Every ticket I get is unfair.

One of the reasons that police target cars for things like failing to signal a turn is that they want to see the driver. In some cases, the police may have seen erratic driving (talking on the phone can reduce your driving skills to a worse-than-drunk condition), they may be looking for a suspect or vehicle that is similar to yours (I have been stopped for this), they may be stepping up enforcement in a problem area (stop signs around a neighorhood), or your friend may have been ticketed during an operation night cap operation.

During operation night cap, the police will look for minor infractions to pull vehicles over to smell for alcohol to try to catch DUIs. Police have said that at any given time, they can pull over nearly half of the vehicles on the road for one reason or another, and some of the operation night cap funding is dependent on getting "results" (I forget if it's the federal or state aid that wants measurements).

Other than that, with the return of warm weather I'd rather see the enforcement spent on rolling through stop signs...
