Please give me real life examples where people that you know have ben pulled over for exceeding the speed limit by one or two mph or for rolling through a stop sign when there is no other traffic within miles.

If you can name some, I would bet that the people who were pulled over have either been driving erratically or they are "well known to local authorities" and LE was simply looking for an excuse to pull them over. The police don't want to be wasting their time on silly little "technical" violations.

It's the same as a broken tail light or driving with your lights off at night. I've never heard of anyone getting ticketed for it. Police will usually pull you over and tell you to get it fixed, unless they know that you have been a problem in the past and they are looking for an excuse to pull you over and search your car.
