When I was still teaching motorcycle safety classes, many of the other instructors were police officers. One did accident reconstruction. He told me once that one of the most dangerous places to be in Oregon is out of a car in a work zone. He particularly mentioned truck drivers who were hopped on meth and doing 80 or so, but also mentioned car drivers who would plow in to the back of a work truck (after 1-2 miles of warnings) and then claim that they didn't know that construction was going on.
If you obey the laws in construction zones, then I don't see the problem. I doubt that this is the only speeding offense in Il that results in points.
