I actually floated this with my co-workers at least a decade ago.

Everyone gets a paintball gun and X number of paintballs every year with their registration. You can "splat" any car you like, with the qualification that you only get so many per year. Best be discerning.

The state patrol are the only ones with the means to remove whatever is in the paintball. They have the authority to pull over anyone they see with a "splat". After some number "Y", it is mandatory to go to your state patrol inspection station to have them removed. While you are there, it is incumbent upon you to explain how you managed to garner so much attention. If the answer is something like "I dunno, I was just driving", you don't get to anymore.
