2.  Why shouldn't US road signage switch to metric?

There will be a lot more accidents when drivers have to look at their fingers to count to 10 over and over.

Within safety corridors, drivers can also look at their toes if they need to carry digits.

1.  Why should US road signage switch to metric?

The last time the US tried switching its road signs to metric, people shot the signs up. We need to give bored rednecks something to do.

2.  Why shouldn't US road signage switch to metric?

Ammo is getting too expensive these days.

CA 13 between CA 24 and I-580 should be called "Freeway the 13th."  It's a killer drive.

Elm Street

Wes Craven went to Wheaton College (yes, the same college as Billy Graham).  I used to live a couple of blocks from Elm Street nearby and always wondered if that's the one he had in mind.

What highway or highway number is the most romantic?

I could go two routes, I could go I-69, which may be a "such a good answer, it's bad" type of situation, or I could go I-5, which 5 just doesn't sound like a romantic number at all.

I'm going the less risky option, I-5.

MSR 200.  The route number is equal to the number of episodes of Sailor Moon, an anime premised on "miracle romance", and the number of states it passes through is equal to the number of seasons where the main character's love interest was predominantly alive.

US 1, because one is the loneliest number.

CA 245 since it will steal your heart just like people stole CA 69 shields during the 1970s.

"Useless" for all those US routes that have been supplanted by Interstates, but the locals insist that their road must still have a number.
