I do agree with you, my dad's buddy was (retired) a state trooper, and he said over 90% of his DWI and drug busting were not based off how the driver drove but an excuse to stop any car possible (like roulette), tint, missing plate, broken taillight, etc. at late evening on the weekends - and he was one of the cops got the highest rate of giving out DWI tickets and ALWAYS met his quota and more. He said the chances of people drink and drive over the limit on the weekends were high and often they could drive well under the influence - he added, people who did not maintain their cars could tell a lot about their lives and people who tint their windows (too) dark often had an "agenda"
And to prove it, when I had my E46 in PY and tinted windows, I get stop for no reason almost every other week, but when I had my Porsche, clean, not a single stop in 4 years.
