a place where police officers measure the speed of vehicles and issue tickets to those exceeding the speed limit
A speed trap is a place where law enforcement uses equipment to monitor and catch drivers who are speeding. It usually involves radar or cameras that measure how fast a vehicle is going. When a driver exceeds the speed limit, they may be fined or pulled over. Speed traps are often set up in areas where speeding is common, such as near schools, construction zones, or on highways. The goal of a speed trap is to encourage drivers to follow speed limits and improve road safety.
