It's not so much the Police pushing this agenda, but the Government-heads. Cops get their barking orders from City/County Leaders.

THIS INFORMATION IS INCOMPLETE..

Most state's motor vehicle statutes as they pertain to equipment, are prefaced with the sentence "anyone who operates a motor vehicle registered in the state". I'm not familiar with Fla law but I know in DE they can't ticket for that type of violation.
