I feel like that would make cops target wealthier communities. A simpler solution is that any revenue from traffic tickets goes to the federal government rather than the county or state.

I think this is almost exactly the point: incentivize police to target wealthier communities, who should then be able to push back more effectively.
I'm not sure reality works that cleanly, but I think that's the thought.

Yeah I forgot about that weird US thing. Funding local Police with tickets is quaint, almost absurd.
