Probably wouldn't hurt to act like the ticket was in IL and take steps to resolve it.
Taking steps to resolve it is pretty obvious, no? That compact applies to unpaid tickets, but I'm wondering about paid tickets. Those count as convictions against the driving record and if you get enough then your license is suspended for a period of time. In IL, I believe you're allowed 3 tickets in 5 years. It's unlikely this information will matter, but I'd rather know nonetheless. I'd imagine the conviction counts, but I'm not entirely sure.

I live in a rural area so the highways I frequent have one lane in each direction. If someone wants to pass me they can, but I will be going no more than 5mph over the speed limit.
Yeah, it's the rural areas that get me. They drive by different rules there. I don't like it
