I live in Virginia and I find it difficult to believe that a driver was pulled over for traveling 75 mph in a 70 mph zone. You usually have a 10% or 10 mph buffer between the speed limit and the cop being grassed enough to think that you are worth the trouble. They have plenty of other things to issue tickets for, and they are also engaging in 'profiling' in the hope of finding drugs or money which means more cash or a nice car for their department. Instead of looking at the law as it limits your freedom to make a judgment call about how you operate the car, look at it instead as supporting your freedom to not have yourself and your family killed on the highway. You're spending 2-3 hours driving across the state, so why is the 15 minutes you'd save going 75 mph so important? Just set your cruise at 70: I can almost guarantee that you won't get a ticket, and if you do, you will be able to get a speedometer calibration certificate for court.
