Did the officer say this to you?

"You will be reported for consideration of the question of prosecuting you for this offence."

If so, then you will be sent a summons for court.  They have 6 months to lay the information, so you could be in for a long wait.

Come back again when you receive the summons and post in this thread.

The important part here is what the Police Officer said to YOU.

Best thing to do is just sit and wait to see if a summons arrives. If you don't get one, then all well and good. If they are going to issue one against you, then there is nothing you can do about it until it arrives.

Then in order for the summons specialists to assist, you will need to:

1) List everything you received
2) If possible scan copies of everything and post links.  If you can't do that then type up everything.  Remember to leave out your personal information for obvious reasons.

Unfortunately, when you are pulled at the time, these are the hardest to beat.
In this case, since the corroboration is only a calibrated speedo, technicalities of the 'prescribed device' are out the window too.
As Tamara has indicated, you are likely now to be reliant on a procedural error.
