A speed trap is where you have a rapid reduction in speed limit with little notice with a cop waiting to give tickets. This was a favorite tactic of every small town on old style highways where the highway runs right through the town. If you drive up the 395 there are signs warning you way in advance when the speed limit is going to decrease. This makes the speed limit decrease from 65 down to 35 or 25 in town not a speed trap, and a cop can be waiting there to give you a ticket.
