In the example of going "41 mph in a 40 mph zone", many municipalities allow some "wiggle room" (maybe +/- x mph) when it comes to enforcement - and that is due to lack of resources. But there has been more "summary judgements" lately when it comes to running red lights where there are "red light cameras" installed and the owner of the car with the "photographed plate number" gets a ticket in the mail to pay (and similar can be deployed with speed as there are often "radar monitored" stretches of highway looking for speeders).
The GOP has battled making a pathway for legal immigration a priority and started doubling down on dehumanizing people after Raygun did his "amnesty" thing in the '80s.
