I've scraped my pegs plenty of times, almost all of which were under 20 mph. Some under 10 mph.

My chicken strips are as small as it's possible to get on my bike and I've never laid it down.

Not cause I ride aggressively, mind you. I'm a very conservative rider.

I hear clean parking lots are great for it.

Yep. I was out scraping the pegs at the airport last weekend (think : acres of clean, flat, new pavement). I don't think I ever got over 15 mph.
