Anything above 3 lanes is no longer a highway, it's a mental illness
The ludicrous lane.
They've gone to plaid.
We passed 'em! Stop this thing!
Y'all realize they count all the lanes, not just the ones going one direction right? A 3 lane highway is 1 lane each direction and a suicide lane.
they is the uniform vehicular code. they do count like that where you are, you just don't pay attention
I guess technically it can be a 2+1 highway if you so will, but true.
Still, anything above 4 lanes is dangerously close to mental illness territory
lord give me the confidence of a man from a town with a population of 500
I'm not sure what the implication here is to be honest - am I supposed to be the small town man in this scenario?
yes. calling more than two lanes each direction being "mental illness" screams "i have never been in a crowd"
Right. So I live in an apartment in the capital of my country, where transit moves far more people than the highways ever does.
While we're being derogatory, your opinion is incredibly American
