Default Illinois House fails to override uniform speed veto
Wednesday, Oct. 10, 2007 – Supporters of uniform speed limits on Illinois highways once again are feeling the sting of Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s influence. An effort to bring an end to split speed limits in Illinois was defeated this afternoon after the governor launched a late full-court press to quash the effort.
The Illinois House voted against overriding Blagojevich’s veto of a bill that sought to eliminate the provision in state law that set up slower speed limits on rural interstates for vehicles weighing more than 8,000 pounds. Currently, those vehicles are required to travel 10 mph below the 65 mph speed limit for other vehicles.
