Illinois law would crack down on drivers idling in arrival lanes at O'Hare
CHICAGO -- When timing out an airport pickup, everyone has their own way of doing it.But if a driver's way includes throwing on hazard lights on the side of the road to wait for a passenger's arrival, there are likely new fines coming for that driver at O' Hare International Airport .The curbside pickup is as much part of the airport experience as seatbacks and tray tables.
This is not about making it a revenue producer.'But indeed it will be a revenue producer.With the help of the Illinois State Police and the Illinois Toll Highway Authority, the plan calls for the installation of a network of cameras to capture the license plates of drivers breaking the law by idling on a highway or onrampâthen sending them $100 fines. There are exceptions for disabled vehicles on the side of the highway.'This is the right time for this,' said Stephens.
