99
238
400
69

US-99 fits a grid, and the various state 99s are just renumberings of it.

I-238 is mildly meaningful as it is a renumber of CA-238.

US-400 is indeed pretty meaningless.

US-69 and I-69 fit a grid.  well, kinda, in the case of the hyperextended I-69.

I accept and respect your identity as long as it's not dumb shit like "identifying as a vaccinated attack helicopter".

WA 19: Not long enough to be a primary route and WA 20 has to share its child routes with US 2.
WA 181: Shouldn't even exist, no longer connects to its parent route.

US 310 in Montana. Pretty meaningless. Same thing with US 191. They each do not connect with 10 and 91 since they're somewhere else. US 10 ends in Fargo, US 91 is dang near extinction.
Finally upgraded to Expressway after, what, seven or so years on this forum? Took a dadgum while, but, I made it!

I am surprised nobody brought up I-99 with the way it violates the numbering grid and passed into law by congress.

I would say 182 in New Jersey as it should be a continuation of NJ 57.

It's assinine, not necessarily meaningless.

Asinine, not assinine. You assumed how it would be spelled.
Also, this is a stupid thread.
