Well, he can do that, but there is no legal basis for his asking you for money. Any officer of the law who asks for money during a traffic stop is in violation of department policy if not in violation of the law itself. The officer is an officer of the court, but any "fines" or "penalties" that may be assessed are not collected by him. The court has a mechanism for the collection of monies levied in fines and fees. This isn't like the old days when a local sheriff could act as a local magistrate or justice of the peace and collect fines for traffic stops on the spot.
