I have received notification of a speeding offence of 64mph in a 50mph limit - as the road transitions from motorway to dual carriage way. They have sent me a 'notice of intended prosecution, with no mention of a fine and points. Is there any way to know if prosecution is the only alternative or whether a fixed penalty can be applied. The Police Force is the Metropolitan.

Isn't the document you have received a S172 form demanding the identity of the driver?
Are you ok?

Sorry - yes it is a form asking to identify the driver - then saying that if I don't within 28 days this may incur a 6 point penalty.
Ok. Sorry for the delay. This dropped off my question list I think when you rated.There is a way of telling that at this stage. All you've been asked to do is name the driver which you must do to avoid higher penalties.But if you were doing 64 mph in a 50 mph zone then the fixed penalty of 3 points and a fine of £60 would be appropriate within the sentencing guidelines.Also, they may offer you the speed awareness course instead.
I assume you mean NO way of telling at this point??
Yes sorry. Typing error!
