Roadgeek jokes

[Roadgeekteen]

What do the numbers on LA's I-405 mean?
"Go 4 or 5"

[adventurernumber1]

I'm not really the best at coming up with good jokes, but I'll give it a shot, using what pops into my head at this very moment.


1 => What do you call a 3di pretending to be a 2di? => I-97


2 => What is the only three-digit Interstate that lives in an orphanage? => I-238


3 => If a truss bridge was a person, and he had no tea, then what is his name? => Russ B. Ridge


4 => What would you call the I-70/I-76 "interchange" if it was in a tree with a beehive? => Beeswood


5 => What would you call a traffic signal if it was a bird? => Flashing Yellow Sparrow


I know, these are terrible jokes, but it's the best I had for now.

Cop: "Sir, do you know why I pulled you over?"
Motorist (sheepish): "My bad. I think because I was on I-65 that the speed limit was 65. Dumb mistake."
Cop: "Actually, the speed limit here is 65, but-"
Motorist: "Good thing I wasn't on I-70!"
Cop: "But the speed limit there is-- anyway, you've got a busted taillight."

also:

Off-color joke involving Caltrans BGS designers and the punchline is "They just try to jam it in anywhere it might fit."

I specifically talk about the Oregon but I don't know about the others.

I don't think anything beats that, but Oklahoma also did the S.E 44 Th. sign and the cOnC3Ssi0Ns sign on the Cimarron turnpike.

Once there were two morons going on a road trip to Florida.  They saw a sign that said "Disney World LEFT," so they went home.

How many roadgeeks does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

[kphoger]

The plural of 3dus is 3di.

I love it!

It's OK to admit they were blondes.

This belongs in Fictional.

Actually, I got that from a North Dakota joke book from when I was a kid.

When they told the joke on The Sopranos, it was about two hunters who saw a sign that said "Bear Left."

The weather reports often say stuff that heavier precipitation is expected "east of I-95" or "west of I-81".

How do the weather patterns decide which interstates to follow?

Or, how do the interstates decide which weather to follow? 

These type of statements are made all the time by weather forecasters in Rochester. "North of Route 104" and "North of the Thruway" are the most common. They're usually pretty accurate too, though, with increases in lake effect snow often occuring around or just north of those corridors.

The plural of 3dus is 3di.

I love it!

I'm not convinced that's a joke. I've pondered it, but - maybe I'm missing the point?

us → i is a common irregular plural form.

3dus means "3-digit US route".
3di means "3-digit Interstate".

East/West of I-65 is often used here on weather reports as I-65 goes straight-up through the middle of the Tennessee Valley.

Aha! That's the connection I failed to make. Not enough to make me laugh out loud, but pretty clever.

3dus means "3-digit US route".
3di means "3-digit Interstate".

Now I feel insulted

[Henry]

Be careful how you say the word route, because one way is the bottom part of a tree ("root"), and the other is a blowout in sports ("rout"). Kind of like the "po-tay-to"/"po-tah-to" conundrum.

Example:
"Can you tell me the way to Route (Root) 17?"
"You mean the tree with the number 17 on it?"
"No, the road, Route (Root) 17."
"First of all, that's a tree you're thinking of, and secondly, Route (Rout) 17 is about one mile to the left."
"There was a blowout in last night's game? I must've missed it, but thanks anyway."
"You're welcome, but I don't know what game you're thinking of; have a nice day."

.....none, roadgeeks prefer screwing in vehicles.
