They're trained to profile a situation, which can lead to profiling of the person, which is legal.
Swerving and driving erratically is a violation of the laws... first it puts other people into danger, and...
If your tires touch the lines, you can legally be pulled over... however because they have a camera, they normally record it three times - a sure way to know something is wrong and not just a oops.
