Since you are selling a product I can understand your opinion and I am sorry I missed the "1 to 10 MPH" part of your statement. I have never cited someone who was going that slow unless there were other factors (bad intersections, kids, weather, known criminal driver etc). Even with those other factors it is a rare event to stop someone going that slow. Please don't think I am a traffic hard ass from reading the following paragraphs. If you have ridden with me you know how I ride and that I don't give two poops how you ride unless you do really stupid / dangerous stuff that endangers people. Mmmm Kay? I only offer the following to combat popular uninformed views. Feel free to hate, I am used to it. I have never lost a speeding ticket in court (17 years and counting).
Laser and radar only confirm an officer's observations and are not needed to write tickets. Tickets were written in this country long before such devices were invented. The laser is
absolutely accurate and radar is very accurate if operated to trained standards (i.e. nothing is idiot proof). Laser and stationary radar can only show a true speed or a
lower target speed due to cosine error. And yes, I can pick out and cite a single bike in a group as long as I can see the headlight, know my tested laser reticle is accurate to that distance, and can honestly say I stopped the same bike I lasered. If these conditions are not met then no ticket is written. You might get stopped and warned if I know you were speeding, but I won't write if I can't stand up in court and swear to my God that those legal standards were met.
As for traps, that word conjures up images of cute, furry forest creatures that innocently stick their furry little paws into sharp toothed rusty metal devices designed to rip into their bodies and cause them to bleed. It is a silly term and relieves the violator of any responsibility. No one can trap you into speeding. You do it of your own free will.
There are a few A-holes and crooks that do my job just as there are A-holes and crooks that do your job. You won't read about crooks that do your job because no one cares if a plumber, computer tech, or engineer screws up. But a cop will be on the news for sure. If you want to project your experience with one A-hole cop to an entire group of hundreds of thousands of individuals, then have at it. We are used to it.
I see radar / laser detectors all the time on cars I stop for speeding (read that again for emphasis). They are great for the economy, put people to work, but give their users a false sense of security. They have very limited usefulness if the cop does his job right. If an officer chooses to leave his radar on all the time or is using it on traffic ahead of you, then yes, you will have plenty of warning. If not you will not have enough time to slow because even the standard cheapo units my dept uses are "instant on." And if you think you can scramble a modern laser / radar then all I can say is good luck. I have never seen one successfully used in my 17 years of experience. You should have saved that money for your ticket.
Again, don't think I am a traffic Nazi. I only write for true safety issues and patrol in a city that has plenty of crashes due to people not stopping in time. My tickets are more about distracted driving and things that prevent drivers from seeing other highway users (i.e. things that will get a motorcyclist killed). Yes, that is profiling and is completely legal and ethical.
