speed trap

Description

A speed trap is law enforcement’s cunning strategy, lying in wait on roads to ensnare unsuspecting drivers and brand their fleeting acceleration as a legal transgression. It masquerades as a guardian of safety while pilfering citizens’ time and money. Hidden behind signs, it executes a silent trial for every accelerator impulse. Those caught receive fines instead of cheese and head home burdened with regret. Under the guise of road safety, it thrives as a modern-day monster.
