Truck speed limits on noninterstate highways in Illinois increased Jan. 1. Big-rig speeds on various four-lane roads rose to 65 mph from 55 mph on more rural roads outside of Chicago, matching the passenger car speed limit.

Truckers are advised to hold off on increasing speeds until road signs have been changed, the Illinois Department of Transportation said.
