=== Dimensional Envelope Limitations ===
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-102]]''' – Width: Anything over 8’6” requires a permit. The tollway only allows up to 12’ via standard permit. 
** Over-width on the toll road is allowed ONLY Mon-Sat 1/2 hr before sunrise until 1/2 hr after sunset, and Sunday 1/2 hr before sunrise until noon.
** Over-dimensional vehicles shall not be operated on the tollway on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, or Christmas Day.
** Also, NO over-width over 10’ is allowed in active construction zones! If they are over-width without a permit, write 15-102 (8’6” max).
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-103]]''' – Height: If they hit a bridge, write height violation (13’6” max without permit).
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-301]]J''' – If they violate permit provisions, write this section. Make sure it is cited as a “petty offense”.
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-105]]''' – Projecting load on passenger vehicle (not beyond fender to left, 6” max allowed over right fender).
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-106]]''' – Protruding members of vehicles (boom arm, drill, etc.) shall be secured from movement.
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-107]]''' – Length violations: Single vehicle 42’, motor home 45’, semi-trailer alone 53’, car/boat transport 60’, max load overhang 80’, max overall length 100’.
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-109]]''' – Spilling/leaking load on highway.
* '''[[625 ILCS 5/15-109.1]]''' – Covers/tarps on blowing, falling, sifting, or dropping loads. Tollway Act requires ALL open-bed loads to be tarped regardless of whether the material is actively blowing out or not.
* '''Note on Permits:''' All oversized / overweight loads must have an IDOT permit, an IDOT provision sheet (oper993), and a tollway permit (when on the tollway). If there is no tollway permit, treat it as if they have NO permit at all (hence: write for absolute over-weight, over-width, etc.). Agricultural loads, hay, straw, and implements are exempt from width violations only—until they hit something (e.g., toll booth, construction cones, workers).
