Another Reason Not to Visit Chicago

Except for going to an airport, we haven’t been to Chicago for over two years.

If one has something of a lead foot, here is another reason to avoid the city:

Go more than six miles over the speed limit and you might get a ticker.

Think of the speed on I-90 when there is little traffic.

Another Reason Not to Visit Chicago — 13 Comments

  1. Just how far above the posted speed limit should speeding be permissible without getting ticketed ?

  2. ORD is crap compared to MKE.

    When will the tram (people mover) be in operation?

    2 years waiting so far.

    Chicago is turd circling the toilet bowl.

    Nothing will change, just continue to decay

  3. Since the Blackhawks dumpster dive and my cancelling partial season tickets, I have no reason to enter that place.

    Used to take the Train and a Bus to get to games, because the Parking at Hawks games, because of excessive “Entertainment Tax” made it impractical to drive–and now another gotcha reason to stay away.

    Who in their right minds wants to still live there and have kids go to CPS there?

    And hipsters who stayed there because of the *quaint* neighborhoods, shops, bars/restaurants, bakeries, bookstores,are finding those shops and such are no longer there because of shutdowns and looting.

    Not hip to be there anymore.

    Actually kind of stupid really,and of course, added element of danger everywhere now..

  4. Nob Wire is a sensible sort.

    I let my Bears tickets go two years ago, actually I sold them to a nitwit under a contract.

    The buyer wanted a do over.

    No way Jose.

  5. Carjackings double in 2020 over 2019 in Chicago.

    Far northwest side, Edison Park, is safest where numerous cops and firemen live.

  6. Preliminary 2020 Chitown Murder Totals (vs 2019)

    Shot & Killed: 719 (+55%)

    Shot & Wounded: 3455(+51%)

    Total Shot: 4174 (+52%)

    Total Homicides: 792 (+53%)

  7. Blacks are 12% of the population and they seem to be 80% of commercials, typically with white women; and 50% of the MSM.

    They are about 80% of ESPN and pro sports.

    Good reason to turn off TV and watch hockey.

  8. Re speed on I90.

    Excluding semis, many drive over the 70 limit.

    Best to leave the left fast lane to the speeders.

    A Porsche 911 at 90 mph with a competent driver probably ok.

    BUT, have seen rolling motorized appliances – jumbo suvs, pickups – going perhaps 80-90.

    And, some tailgate.

    Crazy.

  9. Right on Krypton!

    I could go on with your list but I would gain a label.
