Well it's not really entrapment per se... its more of a violation of the 4th amendment. Illegal/unreasonable detention, search, or seizure without cause. They are detaining you without cause, since you have a registered vehicle which would mean that you have passed all smog related requirements (in this particular case). So they are subjecting you, me, or any of us, to unreasonable detention followed by a search without just cause. fortunately for us, as citizens, the Bill of Rights and following amendments of the Constitution protect us above all else. Even if a state says its 'OK', if it violates any amendment, you can fall back on that and (hopefully) come out on top so to speak
Entrapment would be a cop trying to sell you illegal equipment for you car, installing it for you, then busting you for it.
