It sounds like you ARE, in point of fact, an idiot and it also sounds like you got off lucky. BMW Lawman and his brothers in arms here in Oregon would have hooked you up with a set of cuffs, towed your car and hauled your dumbass in front of a judge.
As far as the asking you how fast you were going; in the US, cops ask that as a litmus test to see just how bug of a gaping asshole you are. People who answer honestly score some points in the officers eyes while the vast majority lie. Police officers do not like being lied to and they are also (by virtue of their job) pretty good at knowing when someone is lying his ass off. Honestly, I've been on enough ride along traffic stops to tell you that the only thing that matters when talking to a police officer is your attitude and honesty; he knows the answer to every bullshit question he is going to ask you.
The only exception to this rule is the "Have you been drinking?" question. I don't drink and drive, so I rarely ask officers about this situation, but I know the general policy is that anyone who answers "Yes" to that question gets hauled in immediatly. Generally, if you are drunk, your screwed anyhow because officer discression goes out the window; so just always answer a flat out "No" to that question.
