(The Center Square) – Republican Illinois state Sen. Steve McClure is speeding up the pace in his quest to make area roads safe after a new “Best & Worst Cities to Drive In” 2025 survey placed Chicago near the bottom among the 100 largest cities.
As part of their study, WalletHub researchers compared 30-driver-friendliness indicators across categories that include costs, congestion and safety with Chicago ranking 96th overall, including 99th for traffic and infrastructure and 76th for safety. Researchers also weighed such variables as gas prices, insurance rates and road quality.
