I use to drive over the road and went to Chicago a lot. Not sure where Secor Il. is. I hated driving through that state because of the speed limits.

Secor is located 30 miles east of Peoria or 25 miles north west of Bloomington/Normal. Yea they tried to pass the 65 mph speed limits a couple times and just shot it down again. I been through Missouri where its 70 for everyone and it seems the same as here. I dont drive a semi, but nobody drives 55 and few drive 65 for that matter. I run 60 on the 2 lane highways and 70 on the interstates, cause if I run the posted speed limit I will get run over!

Yeah, I got pulled over by a state trooper in the semi and he told me that if you were runnung 64 mph or slower in a semi that all they could do was give you a warning. I started driving 63 and never had a problem, but when come out of Missouri running 70/75 and then drop to 63, it makes for a long trip to Chicago.
