Not I-255 (IL) either...

Seems like there is an Illinois theme going on for the guesses so far

wriddle082

The more I look at this, it's giving me a different vibe than IL...

How about I-275 OH?

Definitely agreed with most of the other guesses that this looks like an IDOT roadway, but I couldn't think of any other IDOT-maintained 3di's since I-294 & I-355 are ISTHA.

And then it occurred to me: Could this be the brief IDOT-maintained stretch of I-355 by its northern terminus (before it switches over to ISTHA for the rest of its length)?
"Now, what if da Bearss were to enter the Indianapolis 5-hunnert?"
"How would they compete?"
"Let's say they rode together in a big buss."
"Is Ditka driving?"
"Of course!"
"Then I like da Bear buss."
"DA BEARSSS BUSSSS"

It is the IDOT-maintained section of I-355, and the bridge it is crossing is the Overpass over US 20/Lake St, just south of where I-355 breaks off of I-290

There is a Toll Booth within about a mile of this spot, also

Up next: (no toll plazas near this one ;-))

I-335 (KS)? (I know you said no toll plazas, but looks too similar to pass up)

I-469

Correct - location I grabbed was NB approaching exit 15 (but of course, pretty much the entire length of I-469 looks like this).

Couldn't tell you why, but this looks like Maine. I'll roll the dice on I-295.

I'm also guessing Northeast, given the terrain - I think it might be I-495 in Massachusetts.

I want to say this is in Ontario, but this is the 3di challenge.

I'll guess I-176 (PA) I guess

It is indeed I-291 in CT. I figured it wouldn't take too long to get this one.

I thought it looked familiar.  Drove it several times back in the spring of 2019.

Here's the next one:

If that's the Rock River hiding behind those trees on the right, this might be I-280 (IL)

Nope.  Not quite that close to a river, but not too far from one.
