Wisconsin still has live officers in patrol cars. In Illinois, you're likely to pass a patrol car that perhaps has the radar active, but a blow-up doll in the driver's seat.Women and men actually receive the same proportion of tickets compared with warnings when pulled over by Wisconsin State Patrol officers.
But here's the good news for Cheeseheads, ladies and gents alike:
Those Illinois drivers got slapped with tickets a higher percentage of the time. One possible reason? In general, they were driving faster.
Most of that traffic enforcement is on the interstates, where Wisconsin is more generous with 65 mph zones than Illinois is. Off the interstates, it's another matter. Wisconsin posts suburban mile roads five to 20 mph slower than Illinois does on otherwise comparable roads.
