by traveldave Gary is a city located in extreme northwestern Indiana. The city is actually a suburb of Chicago, which is just across the state line in neighboring Illinois. Much of downtown Gary consists of burned out, dilapidated buildings and, aside from a few casinos on the lakefront, there is little to attract visitors. Anyone traveling to Gary should be aware that the city has been rated the fifth most dangerous city in the United States and has the highest murder rate in the nation. Leave a Comment

Watch out for deer on the roads.Skunks should be avoided too but they won't demolish your car like a deer will. Indiana may be the pollen capital of the world.If you suffer from allergies the fall of the year can be miserable. In the summertime the heat and humidity can become extremely uncomfortable.

Watch out for the speed traps, especialy in construction zones. The cops show no mercy and fines are doubled. Leave a Comment

While visiting Spring Mill State Park at the mill stand away from the waterwheel when they open the flume to start the wheel. I have seen people knocked down when the water splashes over the side and down onto the tourist below Leave a Comment

What do they have in Indiana, folks? Corns, cows, and a few people... I DON'T think you have anything to worry about! :) Maybe having your car break down on the interstate? Naww... even then there's still plenty of towns between exits! ;) Leave a Comment

THERE ARE ALOT OF DEER OUT HERE. SO YOU HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR THEM WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. THEY CAN REALLY, REALLY MESS UP YOUR CAR AND YOU. ALSO THERE ARE CERTAIN AREAS YOU ARE BETTER OFF STAYING AWAY FROM. SUCH AS GARY, BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE AREA YOU COULD GET YOURSELF INTO TROUBLE. ALSO CERTAIN PARTS OF MICHIGAN CITY AREN'T TO SAFE. YOUR BEST BET IS CHESTERTON AND VALPARAISO Leave a Comment

by K.C. Watch out for deer. They run wild in front of cars and all over the roads. Also bears. Not many, but some. Crazy people driving. They are really bad on weekends, but where isn't that true? Leave a Comment

Indiana is a Very Close Second to Ohio for Speed Limit laws being STRICTLY Enforced.Southern and Central Indiana seems to be very relaxed but not across Northern Indiana...Stay at the Speed Limit on the Indiana Tollroad. I also recommend staying as far away as possible from the Gary Area because of the always High Crime rate.

The interstate surrounding the city of Indianapolis is one huge and severe trap. The signage telling you how to get where you need to to get where you want to is very poor and you might find yourself going in one very long circle around this city for hours like I did more than once when I went over there. Sure, I may not have been paying too close attention. it happened several times, so, I do not think this is a viable excuse! Besides, ;-), I am a genius! :-P Leave a Comment
