I've never got a speeding ticket though I've been pulled over and given tickets for other stuff. I've gotten 2 tickets for expired registration during college where the renewals didn't go to my actual address. I've been pulled over twice for speeding, once about 9 years ago and once a few months ago. The first time he said slow down and left. The second time I was let go because the officer knew me.
I usually do 5 over bare minimum, anywhere regardless of the speed limit. On the highway I do 7-10 over, usually 7 over average. Sometimes if there's a median and I can see a mile ahead of me and a mile behind me, I'll do 20, 30 over, sometimes more. I have a Whistler Pro 78 radar detector which detects radars mile(s) away, even around corners and behind hills. I could probably speed everywhere I go, 15 over or more with this thing but I don't want a ticket.
BTW SM70, how did they get you? Radar? Did they come up behind you without you seeing them?
