Speeding ticket. OUCH!!!

I define a speed trap as a specific location officers setup with their radar guns due to a high frequency of speeding in that area.

In my case, it's a street where the speed limit goes from 40 to 25 across an intersection governed by a stoplight. In my case, I arrived at the intersection while the light was green and just continued through. My failure to slow immediately is what earned me my ticket. 25' back, I wasn't speeding. Across that intersection though.... BAM!! $130, please and thank you.
