Chicago expressway shootings continue to surge, as authorities search for answers following the latest two incidents on the same day at different areas across the city last week. In the first expressway shooting Thursday, according to Illinois State Police, an unidentified male driver crawling along morning traffic on I-290 witnessed a robbery taking place on the Chicago Transit Authority platform. That driver pulled over to the shoulder, exited the vehicle and opened fire. The individual, who has not been identified by authorities, reportedly hopped back into the vehicle and peeled off. No injuries related to the incident have been reported.

In the absence of policing, maybe that driver was performing an act of civil responsibility.

And infrastructure money will go to this city that is out-of-control and corrupt. Naturally, they don't want a police force. They might have to do something legal there.

FTA: Expressway shootings have continued to surge in Cook County despite the Illinois State Police receiving a $12.5 million grant in February from the Illinois Department of Transportation for the purchase and installation of automated license plate readers, software and specialized cameras. The grant should have been used to hire more state troopers (they patrol the expressways, not Chicago police). And it no surprise the Dan Ryan and I-57 are dangerous, always have been. The uptick in shootings on the Edens (I-94 in northern suburbs) is a bit of a surprise though.

There isn't one chance in Hell I would get within 50 miles of Chicago. My days of needing to travel up there for work are over, and I will never head that way again. I would drive 100 miles out of my way to circumvent Crook County if I had to pass that way.

Do not overlook the obvious that it is quite possible expressways are racist. It is also possible that people do not understand that one does not mess with the Amish and their buggies.

My lifetime goal is to never set foot in Chicago again, including airports. And since I try to see family in Wisconsin, that can be challenging (thankfully, there are some options that don't include O'Hare or Midway).

Gianni, a local who works in Fisherman’s Wharf, told Fox News.
