Fewer Blacks have cars, percentage-wise, then whites. Often, when a police officer makes a stop, s/he has no idea of the race of the driver, particularly in the South and Southwest, where so many cars have darkly-tinted windows. Often, when Blacks ARE stopped, it is not merely because of a supposed traffic or equipment violation, but rather because the driver or those in the car are acting in a manner that draws suspicion for non-traffic-related violations.
Many years ago, a well-regarded and well regulated survey in New Jersey concluded that Blacks were SLIGHTLY LESS likely to be pulled over for a traffic violation than "others." Since then, Leftists have devised a large number of bullshit studies intended to perpetuate the myth of innocent and respectful Blacks being pulled over and abused by police, simply because of their race. It does happen of course, but the fact that it makes news when it is documented to have acturally occurred says a lot. It is largely in the mind of Blacks.
