Default Special Tickets

The other day my friend and I were returning from a club picnic, both of us in our respective cobras. My friend punched it from the signal and immediately got pulled over by a local (Lake Havasu City) motor cop. The cop said he was doing 78 mph in a 45 mph zone . The cop then asked my friend if he wanted a local Environmental ticket, or a State of AZ ticket. He further explained the Enviromental ticket was, a city ticket issued for wasting fuel and would not go on his driving record as a moving violation, costing about $65.00, and no points etc.
The state ticket would cost him plenty, points, driving school and so on....guess which ticket my friend got.
Question, are there other cities that are generating revenues by doing their own thing legally?
