Um.... technically a speed trap is when an officer times a car over a known distance, calculates their average speed, and pulls them over if it's over the limit. As far as I know, it's not legal to ticket a car due to average speed, only due to a directly observed speed.
Are you talking about a cop hiding w/ radar or something? I don't bother to warn others about cops... in fact when some idiot in her giant SUV that's too busy talking on the phone and arguing w/ her kids to pay attention to the speed limit gets pulled over by a cop that is sitting in plain sight, it makes my week. Do I speed? Sure, all the time... but I don't go so fast that it attracts attention, and I drive safely... if you're too stupid to be able to do the same, you deserve a ticket.
