So it is within the legal time limit for an offence? If it harms no one but themselves, why are people being arrested and cautioned for it now? Either it is an offence or it isn't.
What if they had done it five years ago? Or just one year ago? What about if it was just last month? Would that make a difference? Where do you draw the line? I am pretty sure that 30 years is the statutory time limit that the police have to adhere to.

If someone publicly admits to speeding then they should get points on their license, yes.
