| Desmondo is correct ( almost )
It it NOT an urban myth........
For you to be successfully reported for speeding in England & Wales, it requires one Police Officer to form the opinion that you are exceeding the prescribed limit.
This expert opinion then must be backed up by some form of corroboration - another cop stood there saying " I agree! " is enough although these days it is more than likely to be a laser, vascar, truvelo, muniquip or a good old speedo providing the corroboration.
But the good old two person rule is still enforceable and does get used occasionally.
As for the NIP...
There is NO requirement for the exact speed to be mentioned, merely the details that are listed.
From what you have said, it would appear to be a valid NIP.
The more detailed bits will be forwarded to the driver committing the offence once they have been identified ( by the Section 172 Notice requiring the keeper to identify the driver which is sent along with the NIP being filled out & returned...) usually as a conditional offer of a fixed penalty notice, or as a summons if you were going for it.
