It really is lower. Not just from basic crime reports, but other ways of measuring like population surveys of victims. Nonscientifically, my feeling is that the median rates of finable crimes are about the same (~0) but all the people that can't help but go around and rack up infractions are usually bad at holding down a job, too, so they're less often rich, unless they're a successful misfit. Like, Marco Rubio comes to mind, he got a lot of speeding tickets. And two guys I know who are somewhat successful startup founders seem to have expressed the notion that getting pulled over is something that you expect to happen a lot, and I can't imagine them enjoying life in middle management.
