Things to look after while driving on Chicago highways
Post in: Highways Chicago
Please pay special attention to the speed limit signs on the expressways of Chicago. Though there are only few speed signs one has to be extremely cautious with the fact that the Chicago highways are often prone to heavy traffic jams and also deadly road accidents. Though the speed limit in the entire Illinois state is 55mph it is reduced to 45mph due to the high traffic density and frequent entering and exits to and from the expressways in Chicago.
Also you should pay attention at the tolls as it is completely automated. You should be aware of the toll lights and you should not slow down unnecessarily near the tolls.
