Does anyone play at funtrivia.com? They have quizzes of all types, including roads, currencies, explorers, Scrabble, calculus, grammar, The Beatles, and much more!

Link here if you want to start: http://www.funtrivia.com/?ref=hotdogPi (http://www.funtrivia.com/?ref=hotdogPi)

Notes:

There are quizzes, and there are hourly and daily games. Quizzes are not timed, but hourly and
daily games are. The hourly and daily games will have you competing against other people.

Road quizzes are in the category "World", subcategory "Transport", and further subcategory "Roads and Highways".

You will get a fair number of British and Australian questions in mixed quizzes (including hourly and daily games), since people from all over the world are on this site.

Sporcle does the same sort of thing, including timed quizzes. You triggered a memory of a few games I created in 2011. None road-related though: https://www.sporcle.com/user/kurumi

Elsewhere in Sporcle, people have done "name the state where I-64 and I-77 meet" type quizzes.

I'm also a sporcler, and I prefer the Kyrgyzstan*-based quiz site to any other. It even has triggered some cases of 'sporclitis', where you remember some obscure facts and miss the obvious ones. This happens with me and the last name Pearson...

*Actually is Seattle-based like Microsoft, but play a few geography quizzes and you will realize this Central Asia country is a running gag thanks to its difficult spelling.

67/67 in one second :sombrero:. I gave you five globes, though I miss Bishkek as a valid answer.

I got an 80 (16 out of 20 correct). Extremely easy, except for a few questions that were related to history which I had never learned, haha.

If you look carefully on Sporcle, you can find a quiz about Virginia Route 28 created by none other than ethanman62187.

I created another road-related quiz on funtrivia.com, although it is around the world, not US-only. Unlike the last one, this is only 10 questions.
