The speed limit on all the Interstate highways near Chicago is 55 mph, though the average actual speed of cars is closer to 80 mph. Other interstate speed limits in Illinois just went from 65 mph to 70 mph this year, but you have to go outside the metropolitan area before you get to those speed limits. The speed limit in downtown Chicago is 45 mph, but no one goes that slow, except in rush hour, when you're more likely to be going 15 mph.
