Got an NIP for going 4 miles over the speed limit in a 20

I got an NIP for exceeding a 20 MPH speed limit at 24 MPH by a
camera. I looked at the Calibration certificate and it was valid
for less than 1 year (e.g. July 31 2025 - June 8 2026) for some
reason, although technically still valid. It was issued by
Redspeed and type of system is "SpeedCurb" if that matters.
Has anyone has seen Redspeed certificates with this format
before, and whether the lack of detail (no tolerances, no test
standards listed, no witness signature beyond the CEO) is normal
or worth challenging through disclosure.
Any ideas on the best way to get out of it? Given you normally
get 10% + 2 MPH, I'm surprised I got the ticket at all but I
know they can technically issue one for it. Frustrating.

24/ mph is the trigger point so unless you have another
Avenueyou May be entitled to a SAV if in England or Wales if you
meet criteria

There is no mileage in questioning the calibration cert.
And you do NOT "normally get 10% + 2 MPH". The guideline of "10%
plus 2" is actually the starting point for enforcement, i.e. you
only "get" 10% plus 1mph.
