The police are probably running radar/laser on that road because people are speeding so much.

You might be able to talk it down in court, saying that you were only doing 45. But laser is quite accurate especially at short ranges so he'll probably have you there.

IF there was a lot of other traffic at the time you were ticketed, the video with you going 30 and showing other drivers' reactions might work, you'd have to maintain that you thought it unsafe to do the speed limit, and show why. No guarantees, but with the right judge you might make out.

I know a guy that was clocked at 78 in a 55 here in Virginia. His argument in court was that there was a trailer behind a car in front of him that was swaying back and forth, and a car on his bumper that was so close he couldn't even see the grill in his rearview, so he accelerated out of a dangerous situation. The ticket was dismissed.

Good luck with the ticket and post back to let us know how it comes out.
