I am trying to log in to a webpage and want to pass userId and password .It's not passing the userid/ password and page is stalled.Getting following exception-

"{The HTTP request to the remote WebDriver server for URL http://localhost:6905/session/4e1158e787cbb6d6a16e5352a290cc89/element/0.5806346454853202-1/click timed out after 60 seconds."}" Using chromedriver version 2.40.0 , Chrome Browser version is 67.0.3396.87 and Selenium webdriver version is 3.12

Also noticed the same issue with IE11 . Please provide any help/suggestion regarding this .

IWebDriver IeDriver;
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
            options.AddArgument("disable-infobars");
            options.AddAdditionalCapability("useAutomationExtension", false);
            options.AddArgument("no-sandbox");
IeDriver = new ChromeDriver(options);
IeDriver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://in.linkedin.com/");
Thread.Sleep(5000);
IeDriver.FindElement(By.Id("login-email")).Click();
