did anyone catch that article in the SunTimes yesterday about IL towns that have the highest and lowest percentage of tickets issued per stop???

Very interesting to see who made the list...

http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/5...cops12.article

there's a pdf in the article that has the list of towns (I read the article in the paper yesterday)... but I'm not able to open it...

 

It can be very hard to know when your in one town then another around here. Bottom line, slow down, I bet the % of Coopers/sports cars getting tickets is always above avg even in the below avg cities.

 

Here's the PDF. I never would have imagined citation rates could vary so drastically!

 

I guess I'll do all my speeding in Geneva, and slow down when passing through Gilberts!

 

Thanks for posting that rooandren wasn't able to do that on the work-laptop...

I was looking through the list and I pass through 6 of the towns on the list everyday to go to work/home.... good thing I have the V1 now

 

Fuggedaboudit. I lived in Chicago for 6 years until recently. It's nice being back on the right coast, but I miss Chicago hot dogs bad.

 

I think you can order Portillo's over the internet prbly not the same as being there... but close enough I guess... my bro' relo'd to Boylston a few years back... said he lives on a blasted rock somewhere Haven't been to NE-area myself.. one of these days...

give a holler if you find your way over here

 

I'll have to check out Portillos?!?! Maybe some of their sauces, that would be cool.

Blasted rock comment went over my head.

I think I'm gonna make a trip back for my birthday/New Years, treat myself to an all out steakhouse gluttonous adventure. Now which one...

 

Good time of year to come back

 

my coop coop came with a built in radar detector...its awesome!

while in the far north burbs...never speed through mundelein, libertyville, spring grove, or hainsville. just...don't...do it!

 

Remember Radar detectors don't do anything for LIDAR that at least Palatine, Arlingtn Heights, Rolling Meadows and ISP use.

For the record I drive through6 of the towns in that artile on a regular basis, have tosay I am a little suprised about which towns made the list over some others I know of.
