Rather than a city, it will be signed as going to Interstate 74. This is to continue the theme set by the I-355 route number and the road's new 74-mph speed limit that is set to reflect that route number.

Those are the roads where you'll be prosecuted if you don't drink a certain Irish beer while driving.

In West Virginia, what are HARP routes?

These are roads on which, in accordance with the state vehicle code defining them, your wife is required to harp on you for driving too fast, or for driving too slow, or for following too close behind the truck in front of you, or for crowding the center line too closely, or for getting too close to the edge line—and there's nothing you can do about it.

My wife does that regardless of road. I'd like a road on which it's illegal for her to do that.

They are routes where the only drivers are right-wing QAnon conspiracy nuts complaining about chemtrails, the government controlling the weather, and that the earth is flat. These kinds of people are found most often in West Virginia.

This is even more of a worst answer because 99% of these roads don't have center lines, posted speed limits, trucks, or painted lines.

The West Virginia Division of Highways has too much money, so they take over residential roads to maintain out of the goodness of their heart.
