But the ACPO guidelines are just that - Guidelines. They don't have any real legal status, so theoretically you could be done for 31mph. A good lawyer could possibly argue that something breached guidlines and maybe get you off. Probably a better line of arguement if you were close to the limit is to ask what the accuracy of the camera is.
