There's a few places near where I live where a 4-lane highway with only a few turnoffs is labeled at 60km/h, but everyone goes 80km/h because that's what the road should actually be. Of course, the cops occasionally try to catch "speeders" and hand out fines here. There's another spot where this 60km/h zone goes to 100km/h and cops set up just before the 100km/h sign so they can catch people as they speed up to 100km/h. This is basically abject theft, in that they're purposely criminalizing what is literally the normal behaviour of everyone on these roads, but of course if you try to fight being robbed by your government they will destroy every asset and right you have until you give them your tribute.
Meanwhile, almost every night, people's cars are broken into, but I guess the government doesn't give a shit because they can't make money off of criminals who have few assets and little care for the law.
There seems to be a fundamental issue where decent citizens generally have assets/money that can be stolen from them, so they are profitable for the government to target, while criminals do not, and in fact cost money to deal with through prisons and courts, so they are not profitable for the government to target.
