Indeed, in fact one could go further and call it a "license-to-behave-like-a-moron insurance."

Think one of my work collegues had an issue with that a few weeks back...

Could be miscalibrated radar settings, that's why there are markings on the road though. If the photos taken don't match what the radar system says you shouldn't get a ticket, and if you do then then markings will clear you.

The calculation is distance divided by time = speed, the distance is determined by the gap between the road markings and the time is the time between flashes, usually 0.25s for a GATSO camera. For example if you travel 100m in 1 second then your speed is (not surprisingly) 100m/s (Which would guarantee you a speeding ban being 223mph) a calculation is available here
