The so called speed traps are hardly traps. The limits are well posted with ample warnings and the speed limits through those built up areas are not unreasonable.
The reputations are a hold over from the days when they were real traps with speed limit signs hidden behind shrubs and trees.
I travel US 301 between The Villages and I 10 frequently and rarely see a police car. I set my cruise control on the limit. I think we owe it to the people living in those areas to observe the limit. I think the slowest is 45MPH for relatively short distances and that is fast enough.
