everything a rookie needs to know to safely drive in chicago

Should be there in 30.5 hours.

 

Plan your route before you get there and stick to it. Lots of low bridges. Don't be afraid to block the left lane so you can turn wide when making a right.

 

8thnote covered it really well....more low-bridges than almost anywhere.....don't trust that gps....plot your route very carefully.

 

I drove through Chicago in traffic. It's actually better there on the highway then it is in VA or MD. The drivers know how to drive but be sure to keep up and stay in the truck lanes. They aren't too dangerous and I don't see them pulling too many stupid moves there.

 

What street are you goung to? I'm sure some here can tell you a good way to get in.

 

brewster creek blvd bartlett, il


Looked up the city and its a small town clearly not chicago. Shipper said chicago. Dispatch said chicago. Even bol says destination chicago, il then shows this address.

 

looks like you got lucky...not even near the windy city..at least not too near to be trouble it looks like.

 

It is pure luck because i dont even have a thomas guide. Time to get one yesterday.

 

Drive a bullet proof tractor ?

 

WHY?.....Bartlett not too safe a place....
