Cathy, I don't think that will affect road cruising. If it said "taking" rather than "trapping" then I'd be worried. This if from the game and fish code in GA:
(71) "Taking" means killing, capturing, destroying, catching, or seizing.
(72) "Trapping" means taking, killing, or capturing wildlife with traps. This term also includes all lesser acts such as placing, setting, or staking such traps, whether such acts result in taking or not, and attempting to take and assisting any person in taking or attempting to take wildlife with traps.

Yep, that sounds like it is more targeted at Fur Trappers.
