I think this is the case for me.

Rode from Missouri to Georgia.

Now the obvious path involves going through Illinois but I wasn't paying much any attention so *shrugs*

I work in Illinois almost every day, but live on the border in another state.
There is no less pleasant driving experience than expressway traffic in Chicago.

Grew up in the Chicago suburbs until I was 18. Go back for xmas with the family each year. Have absolutely no desire to be back beyond that, except to watch a cubs or bears game.

Awful corrupt nanny state.

La. And I stand by Vegas is the only place where I was legit scared to drive. Luckily I was just in the strip and walked everywhere, but even that I never felt safe.

City driving always makes me a little tense because of the pedestrians and cabbies, but Vegas was just another level.

Dang, lots of Illinois folk. I've been living here my whole life.

The winters are the worst part about Illinois, everything else isn't too bad, Chicago has a rich history. Wasn't too long ago that the cubs overcame that 100 year+ curse.

Depends on whether you consider it exciting to be scared for your life or not, I guess

Born and raised for 27 years. Down in Florida now for 10+.

I concur with driving in Chicago. I had my drivers license for 1 week before I had to drive someone to Chicago and got caught in rush hour outside O'hare airport. One of the chief reasons I'm much braver as a driver than my brother. I've seen hell at an early age.

Yeah, heard lots of bad stuff about LA. Could only go by my experience. I've driven in near standstill expressway traffic around Irvine and it wasn't that bad, but maybe people are more relaxed there than in LA itself. They were definitely friendlier than in the equivalent traffic situation in Chicago. Never felt like I was about to be rearended becuse of someone in front of me stopping short with 20 feet between them and the next car, for example.

Noted on Vegas.
