I try to use the 80% rule, if 80% of the cars are going as fast as you are then you should be ok. If I feel like everyone is going faster than me I speed up until I am keeping pace with 80% of the cars.
If there is no traffic I try to keep it around the speed limit to no more than between 5 and 10 over depending on conditions.
In construction zones and school zones and residential areas I go the posted speed for the zone even when most others never slow down.
Using this method I have not received a speeding ticket since 1977.
