Sorry, is it not also much more dangerous for the erroneously-flagged person to be put in this situation? I imagine anyone legally transporting a weapon, for example, would be put in material risk for their safety by this practice.
Also, the widespread practice of people being pulled over for "driving while black".
The police are not your friends. Their job is to arrest. Some departments still have quotas which incentivize their cops to do this even harder.
