Some states curtailed this by passing a law that capped the percentage of a municipality's revenue that could be from fines like this.
A few legislators in Louisiana have tried the same thing, but their bill wouldn’t gain any traction.

I read the article maybe over a decade ago. Might have been Indiana/Illinois/Iowa. Something around there.
The town's budget plummeted like 80%. They were building new city hall, courts, rec centers, all kinds of stuff. Wonder what happened to it. I'll never be able to find that article.
