From the CPS website:
Speed limit: 20 mph ACPO charging threshold: 24 mph Summons: 35 mph
Speed limit: 30 mph ACPO charging threshold: 35 mph Summons: 50 mph
Speed limit: 40 mph ACPO charging threshold: 46 mph Summons: 66 mph
Speed limit: 50 mph ACPO charging threshold: 57 mph Summons: 76 mph
Speed limit: 60 mph ACPO charging threshold: 68 mph Summons: 86 mph
Speed limit: 70 mph ACPO charging threshold: 79 mph Summons: 96 mph
The officers who pulled me over chose to regard the number in the "Summons" column as still being in the fixed penalty zone.
I think the slightest argument or a hint of stroppiness from me would have resulted in a different interpretation... possibly they had more than one reading available from the Truvelo. I'm in no doubt they were very decent guys who were being as lenient as they could.
