Default Speed Radar/Laser (Hand Held) Enforcement Rules

I was definitely speeding today (had to come out from side road, onto a major road, however accelerated fast to merge with oncoming traffic -so easy to do in the G6ET!!!!!!) and in the process of looking beside/behind me to merge in, whoa and behold, on the side of the road were 2 cops , one holding a hand held and the other with head down scribbling down stuff. Almost as if they were set up on the spot to monopolise on just such a situation.

So question, can a policeman operating a hand held speed detector have you booked unless you get physically pulled over and handed a ticket or alternately have a photo record of the event?

Has anyone received a speeding ticket in this manner or know of someone (ie no camera van/car), just a copper beside his bike pointing the nasty speed gun at you and not getting pulled over by another cop down the road?
