I saved the incident from the dash cam (which also has speed enabled) to the computer incase I get lumbered with a ticket in error.

Yes, HADECS 3 is perfectly capable of identifying the speed and which lane it is in.

HADECS 3 doesn't rely on road markings, in fact there won't be any (unless it is an upgrade from a HADECS 2 camera in which case the old paint may still be there). It uses a secondary independent radar check.
