Police departments getting a "cut" of ticket revenue inevitably leads to police forces prioritizing which laws to enforce based on budgetary concerns rather than public safety.
This may be true for small town agencies, but I can guarantee you BRPD, EBRSO, NOPD, etc. are not receiving any material income from traffic tickets.
