There's a narrative that Illinois is not a good place to be if you'd prefer to not have your auto stolen. The Land of Lincoln is making an effort to change that and just shared numbers from a recent crackdown and the results are a stunner.
If you suddenly see the number of carjackings start to decline in Illinois, I know why. The Illinois State Police have spent the past several months bringing the hammer down on those who steal vehicles and the results of their operation are impressive.
I would say that this is a good reminder to lock your car doors in Missouri and Illinois, but I'm not sure that would matter much as a new report says incidents in both states are exploding and especially in Illinois.
I was tempted to start this by saying "hey, we've all had a speeding ticket at one time or another, right?" But, after asking around a little bit, it turns out that not everyone has.
