You misunderstand. Soliciting merely means the act of trying to procure sex for money.
They don’t need a sting for that. They just sit someone near a red light district and roll every car that pulls up and let’s known sex workers get in their car.
Edit: not saying any of that is right though. It certainly feels like punching down… And if anything, it encourages some far more dangerous practices, particularly for sex workers.
Often countries have laws that make the solicitation the illegal act for that exact reason.
Or the arrest folk for conducting their business in public… So lewd behaviour.
Again though, other than a sting, or you getting bawdy in the Audi, they didn’t see it happen.

So, you can get arrested for being in a particular place, or giving a ride to a particular person, regardless of your actions or intent?

Again, you misunderstand. They arrest you because of your actions and specifically because of the intent.
The actions aren’t illegal and they can’t know your intent.
