Absolutely true. Now, speeding along with not giving consent to search can be turned into probable cause by a creative cop and a malleable judge, but plai ol' speeding isn't probable cause.

You're pretty lucky the cop didn't write you a bunch o' tickets, probably the others you got recently weren't in the computer yet since they haven't been adjudicated. He probably never got a speed on you either other than way too fast, not able to estimate enough to have it stick in court.

Slow down when you can't identify the other cars in the area, and learn what a Crown Vic's tail lights look like for Pete's sake!
