Although I would say, that though your chances of a favorable outcome are much better, being rich and Black doesn't always get you that free pass. Many prominent Black figures (judges, actors, professors, etc) have also reported being pulled over in traffic stops or stopped by police for no apparent reason, other than (possibly) the color of their skin. Again, it's a first person account so proof is rather one sided. However, realistically and statistically the same things do not happen as often to certain groups.
True, and neither are all traffic stops illegitimate. While initially being a signal of poverty (or an assumption of crime as the impoverished are the most likely to resort to criminal activities/they have the least amount to lose and the most to gain), thus an easy target to discriminate against, it later becomes ingrained as a matter of habit. It's become systemic.
