I-180 (WY) - it's nice to see a humble interstate not worried about being the widest or the fastest.

Clearly it is I-238 because it is such a conversation starter around here.

Quote from: GaryV on June 02, 2026, 07:48:23 AMGotta be a tie between I-238 and I-343. They both serve to generate tons of useful discussion on this site.

Personally, I think it's I-238, because of all the dialogue and debate on this site that are prompted by its existence.

The answer used to be Chuck Norris St.

But every intersection had a 100% fatality rate, because nobody crosses Chuck Norris and lives, so they renamed it.

I-865 in Indiana. Without it, there would be no access between I-465 and I-65!

Satans Kingdom Road in Connecticut.

After arriving in Broward County, I saw a road whose name fits that question perfectly—remembering the theme of this thread—and about which I had forgotten: Dykes Road.

Then you should have picked a different road.

Pretty much any of them. I find traveling them so much easier than interstates that are only in 2D.

Depends on how you interpret things. I figured some people would consider that street name offensive in context. Hence what I meant by "perfect" in terms of "worst possible answer."

OK, fine.  You get half a point.

I-366. That 85 MPH speed limit helps people get around fast.

Funny, isn't it? that the only highway in the nation with an 85mph speed limit is not an Interstate at all, even though a lot of people on this forum thought it should be—either a relocated I-35 or else an I-x35 3di.

U.S. Route 20. To avoid confusion, I-80 would have to be added to U.S. Route 20's original path as well.
