High Speed's Slow Road

What’s it take to get from Chicago to St. Louis? If you don’t want to spend five hours in the car, you’ll have to fight traffic to drive to O’Hare, arrive two hours before your flight to make it through security, spend an hour-plus on the plane, then rent a car or catch a cab at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport to get to your final destination. It would take just as long to drive.
