Is it possible that he was doing something else wrong? From ACPO's
guidelines:

No.

The guidance to police officers is that it is anticipated that,
other than in the most exceptional circumstances, the issue of
fixed penalty notices and summonses is likely to be the minimum
appropriate enforcement action as soon as the following speeds have
been reached:

Limit Fixed Penalty Summons
20 mph 25 mph 35 mph
30 mph 35 mph 50 mph
40 mph 46 mph 66 mph
50 mph 57 mph 76 mph
60 mph 68 mph 86 mph
70 mph 79 mph 96 mph

In this case it was a speed camera. Twenty metres before an unrestricted sign,
late at night, no pedestrians, no other vehicles, clear road, clear weather.
