The man, 18, drove into a construction zone and struck the unoccupied truck around 1:45 a.m., according to Illinois State Police.
The driver was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said. He was the only person in the vehicle.
Two lanes of northbound Interstate 90 were closed for an investigation until around 7 a.m.
State police did not say if overnight rain and slick roads were a factor in the crash.
