Fake news. Speedos generally over read by 2 to 3 mph, I drive 30,000 miles a year for my job & stick to speed limits but set the cruise control 2 to 3 mph over the limit; that goes for average speed camera sections through motorways & past fixed speed cameras, not been done for speeding yet. To be done for 56 in a 50 you had a speedo indication of about 59. Unfortunate that you got done & you only have yourself to blame but I agree there should be nationwide consistency in the set limits for prosecution, but then it's the same in all aspects of law, lack of consistency
