Photo by Mimi GillAttached is a photo taken of Lake-Cook Rd. near Wilke Rd at the border of Arlington Heights and Buffalo Grove. The view is eastward at approximately 10am Wednesday. There was one abandoned car and only about one moving vehicle passing by every couple of minutes. Definitely a bit different than the normal rush hour traffic of a weekday at 8am!
