Tollway

Illinois’ new transit bill means a big toll hike for drivers heading to O’Hare from Rockford, raising rates up to 60% to fund Chicago’s transit upgrades.

Truck drivers in Illinois have enough dangers to watch out for on the roads every day and now they need to beware of a new threat through their phone. The feds are warning drivers in the Land of Lincoln of a new text scam that is targeting them and is especially a problem in Illinois.

Just when you think a text scam has been beaten, it returns and is worse than ever.

Just give me 5 minutes alone with the people that come up with these scams and everything will be fine. Don't I wish. While I wait for that golden opportunity, I can at least warn you to beware of a vicious text scam involving the Illinois Tollway that is ripping thousands of Illinoisans off.

Traffic congestion is bad enough around Chicago but if add any wrinkle to the situation it's going to take hours to arrive at your destination.
