Illinois State Police in Chicago have activated their “emergency snow plan” for Cook County, saying that they will only respond to significant crashes and stranded motorists in the coming hours as heavy snow continues to fall across the area.
According to a Facebook post, the plan went into effect at 3:20 p.m., and includes a “no tow” order, which means that vehicles that are stuck in ditches or on shoulders will not be towed until conditions improve. Stranded motorists will still be transported to safe locations, but their vehicles will not be immediately towed away, police said.
While police will still respond to personal injury or significant crashes, according to the Facebook post, they will not respond to minor-property damage crashes, and will handle those reports at a later date.In northwest Indiana, police are asking motorists to stay off of Interstate 65, which is closed in several spots due to a series of crashes.
