Your Drive in Tolono Township
Driving Regulations
Just like back home in the UK, the USA drives on the right-hand side of the road. Be sure to remember this key difference, especially at junctions and roundabouts. Seatbelts are a must for all passengers, and don't forget - any talking on mobile phones is only allowed with a hands-free kit.
Speed Limits
Speed limits are marked in miles per hour (mph), not kilometres per hour. The limits are typically 25 mph (40 km/h) in residential areas, but on motorways it can go up to 70 mph (112 km/h), so keep an eye on signage!
Parking
Most areas follow the 'Park Illinois' system, where you can park and pay using a handy mobile app - a world away from dropping coins into a meter on a rainy British day!
Exploring with your Rental
Recommended Car Type
An Economy or Compact car would typically suit solo travellers or couples without much luggage. However, families or larger parties might opt for a Full-Size car or SUV to comfortably explore Tolono Township and its surroundings.

Illinois experiences a humid continental climate, with hot humid summers and cool to cold winters - a fair bit different from our milder British climate, but a warm coat or a sun hat can easily solve that!
