Almost the entire length of 141 has a 50mph speed limit but thru one small section(thru the City of Manchester) the speed drops to 45mph. The Manchester police usually hide along either side of 141 roughly between Big Bend to the south and Brittany Parkway to the north. I travel 141 thru Manchester 3-4 times a week and I can’t remember the last time I didn’t see at least one person pulled over.

The State of Missouri determined that 50mph was a safe and reasonable speed limit on 141 from I-55 in far south Jefferson County all the way north to I-64 in the City of Town&Country yet the City of Manchester decides to drop the speed limit to 45mph in that small stretch. Also, there is no signage present warning motorist of the reduced speed ahead. If this isn’t the definition of a speed trap, I don’t know what is.
