I speeded on the highway without noticing it. So I was surprised at a warning letter from the police who had detected it with a speed camera. この表現は自然ですか?

I was speeding on the highway without noticing it, so I was surprised when a police officer pulled me over and gave me a ticket. He caught me with a speed camera. (or, 'his' speed camera)
I'm not sure what a "warning letter" is. In the US, cops give you a ticket.(meaning you have to pay a fine) Sometimes if they are nice, they will only giving you a verbal warning. (no fine)

Thank you for your answer, Xchilla! I appreciate it! I've learned a lot!
Actually, my sentences are based on my experience in Australia. I was a bit surprised when I received a warning letter for the first time. The Japanese police don't issue warning letters although they use a speed camera and may take a fine like the U.S. police.

By the way, I thought of another way to say the first sentence.
"I was (completely) unaware that I was speeding on the highway, so..."
or
"I completely didn't notice that.."
