45 MPH Construction Zone Speed Limit I-294 Chicago

You got it, nobody cares, just go with the flow

 

I drive there every week day or night ...no one cares ...just stay away from left lane ...all it takes is one good cop

 

no one cares just be aware of cops, like the previous guy said stay away from left lane. Go with the flow. I would t go past 55. That’s just me.

 

I love going the speed limit in that area, just to piss off all the drivers that like to speed through construction zones.
And that 'photo enforcement' only happens when they have a van in a lane taking pictures.

It would be great if those photo enforced zones actually had automated cameras. Maybe then people would slow down a bit.

 

There was a post here on a camera ticket. Pretty sure it was 294

 

Nobody cares, and it’s like that everywhere. Sometimes even the workers in the coned off area will speed through their own construction zone faster than the traffic in the travel lane. Makes me shake my head, but I still stick close to the posted limit mostly out of respect for the workers on the ground, also because I know even if I follow the flow then I’ll be the one exception that gets pulled over because that’s just the way my luck goes.

 

I hate 294; I cut over to 355, don’t care if it adds miles. I also try to detour around going thru that i80 Joliet section.

 

Just find someone going a reasonable speed and tuck in behind them. I drive that road every day, and yeah. The speed limit doesn't mean anything until the cops decide it does.

 

In this country, nobody cares about a speed limit. It's more noticeable in the Chicago area.
