CHAMPAIGN, IL. (ECWd) –

On October 22, 2021, at approximately 1:50 p.m., on Route 130, north of Route 133, a University of Illinois’ assigned vehicle U-9148 was spotted driving at a high rate of speed.

It was moving between 80 and 85 miles per hour in a 55 mile per hour zone – 25-30 miles per hour over the speed limit.

When asked, the University of Illinois could not find anything indicating who was driving the vehicle or why it was on that road, let alone why it was traveling at such a high rate of speed.

We looked up the license plate number in our online database of government vehicles: www.govplates.com – it is free for people to use and was featured by Doug Wolfe, WAND-TV’s I-TEAM in 2017 (HERE).
