She may be well advised to ensure that she documents any conversations with her contracts staff and keeps on top of what they are doing to "uninvolve" her from the speeding ticket.
My experience in the public sector is that contracts staff often take the line of least resistance (with the hire company) rather than assert her innocence.
Note that she cannot legally have driven the car before the hire commenced as she would not have had insurance! Additionally until the hire period commenced the hire company drivers were the only ones who wouud have the authority to drive the car. She should insist they disclose the name of the delivery driver.
