It’s not a quota thing but the state and federal does provide grants that require police to make x amount of interactions.

Interactions aren’t tickets as far as I’m aware. Just stopping to talk to someone counts. It’s a way to ensure the money is being used to put an active cop on the road and not a lazy scammer who will sit in his car all shift, if he shows up at all.

You’re confused. No one is forcing them to put pen to paper and write a ticket. All they have to do is say they spoke to you. They decided on their own to write a ticket.
