Of the states I normally go through (GA, AL, TN, KY, IL, MO, IA), I try to avoid Illinois the most. [:'(] It has the worst roads and worst drivers.
What's funny is, some folks here swear that IL drivers are the best around. A former roommate swore by it.
I tend to disagree.
Avoid IL highways south of Chicago (going around the south side of Lake Michigan - I-80/94, through northern Indiana near Gary) at all costs. It's a nice choke point.
It's funny that some folks there swear they're the best around. They must not have gotten out of the state much. I get ran off the interstate (I-57, I-64, I-55, I-70) at least twice every time I come through Illinois by people not taking a second to check their left side mirror. It's like they aim for me.
