Cops work with a high level of autonomy. They make the decisions as to when, where, and why they write tickets. He didn't pull this man over and was then forced to give him a citation. In this instance he did it because he wanted to. We aren't talking about some kid out there trying to be Fast and Furious. We are talking about an adult driving his car for maximum fuel economy, what's the harm in that.
