Is there a law?
Are there any legal consequences to providing the public with information regarding speed traps and DUI check points? Is there a state by state difference?

If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.
There is no law on point. The American Automobile Association (AAA) is known to point out speed traps on its maps so I am sure it is not prohibited. Of course, it would depend on how you planned on providing the public with information. If the police felt it was interferring with their work, then they could stop you. People have been arrested in the past for interference with a police officer in the line of his duty.
As to other states, I have no knowledge and cannot voice any thoughts.
