I can tell you that I've gotten four citations in one stop before and the officer didn't even seem overly upset or surprised, much less ever mention going to jail.
In college I got nailed for speeding, expired registration, expired inspection and no proof of insurance. I got the latter three dismissed by getting the registration and inspection and showing I did in fact have insurance.
I would say the Thomas incident by itself isn't much, but combined with the Moats thing it certainly does add fuel to the fire, especially with her being a minority.
