Illinois State Police Shorthanded as any Department

Maybe more so. From Second City Cop: ISP Shortages.

They have forced Troopers from Joliet District 5 and Elgin District 2 into Chicago which has failed and destroyed morale. Naming the blunder Troop 3. Some Troopers driving over 2 hours to get to work.

That is 2 hours before they clock in. Not good. People might do that for a while, but unless they are handcuffed by their pension, they won't do it for long, and they won't drive that much - give up that much of their lives - for one day longer than is needed before they quit.

Highways are mini-Chiraqs all over the state and the media never says a word.

For some reason I am flashing on scenes from the original Mad Max and the beleaguered highway patrol organization (Main Force Patrol) just before the collapse of society. Civilization was nice while it lasted.
