The Roadside Safety Check was held late on March 29 through early on March 30.

From the Illinois State Police: The Illinois State Police (ISP) announced the results of a Roadside Safety Check (RSC) held during the late evening hours of Friday, March 29, 2019, and early morning hours of Saturday, March 30, 2019. The detail was conducted on the eastbound Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (I-90) at the River Road Toll Plaza (Plaza 19) in Rosemont by ISP District 15 officers.

Alcohol is involved in nearly 40 percent of fatal crashes in Illinois. RSCs are designed to remove alcohol-impaired drivers. However, when other violations are observed such as driving with a suspended or revoked license, operating a vehicle without a valid registration or insurance or safety belt violations, enforcement action may be taken.

The following enforcement action was issued at the safety check:
