I don't think you are entitled to use the duty solicitor in speeding cases. I may be wrong though..

Soon to find out all of this for myself... ;lol:

just pleaded guilty, the solicitor argued my case for me... slightly different though, i was up for no licence or insurance and facing a really long ban... i walked away with a 14 day ban and no points, depends on what you're likey to get... i paid 150 quid in legal fees, if its worth the money to you employ a good solicitor, most will advise you for free before you actually take them up

I'd not take any representation in speeding matters, all a good solicitor does is present your mitigation in a good way, which is not hard. I'd represent myself....

Do you have the option to not attend court? Has no one else ever taken the option to plead guilty by post?
