That looks like US 6 up in the NY mountains.
Unfortunately, US-6 there is neither 4 lanes divided nor 65 mph.

Region reveal: Mid-Atlantic

Here is a new US Route to guess.  Since this is a pretty open-ended challenge, do I need to provide any clues up front?

Well, this should narrow it down.  The region is Central States.

Not US 160.

I came up with a clue that I'm pretty proud of, and here it is:

Ice otherwise wanders adrift.

US 18, maybe?

Correct!  This is westbound exiting the riverside town of Marquette, Iowa. https://goo.gl/maps/vCZzq85KQ85dfsPg9

The clue was meant to indicate that this is the Driftless Region, and the first letter of every word spells "IOWA":

I wanted to be cheeky and post a photo of me looking down at my car on the Cape May-Lewes ferry, but that would have been too obvious.  :bigass: Excuse the blue line - I apparently have photos of every other type of road but a US highway on my phone, so I used Street View.

If the person who posted the picture hasn't responded to guesses, what should be the rule on that?

There's a rule on this in at least one of the other threads that could apply to this thread too. I think it's "anyone can post a new picture if guesses haven't been confirmed after 1 week". I'd say this one has been long enough if someone wants to post a new picture.
