One of the best features Google Maps offers is incident reporting. Users have the ability to report anything from crashes to lane closures and more. Speed trap reports are particularly handy as they can alert you to the presence of a hidden police officer. A recent update, however, has replaced the Speed trap" option with something new.

[...] It seems that Google is aware of this misnomer and is making a change to the option. In a new update, the tech giant has quietly removed Speed trap" and replaced it with a more appropriate, if not generic, Police" option. In addition, the Police" option sits higher on the list than where the Speed trap" option was located. This brings incident reports in line with what Google showed us in an announcement back in July.
