Our highways, they're all wrong.
I'm recognizing that if you drive from the east coast to the west coast, or vice versa, on a big road trip, you're destined to spend part of your day driving into the sun. That's just poor planning.

How about this instead? Diagonal highways, going northeast to southwest and southeast to northwest.

Yeah, I know it would be a bummer if you're traveling somewhere like St. Louis to Kansas City, but the net effect would cancel out against thos people who are going from Dallas to Denver. Overall, it's all the same, and you don't have to squint as much.

I think you could make a pretty good highway system with the following major highways:

NE to SW Major Routes

Hwy 1 from Boston to New Orleans
Hwy 2 from Cleveland to Dallas
Hwy 3 from Chicago to Albuquerque
Hwy 4 from Minneapolis to Los Angeles

NW to SE Major Routes

Hwy 5 from San Francisco to San Diego
Hwy 6 from Portland to Houston
Hwy 7 from Seattle to Savannah
Hwy 8 from Milwaukee to Miami

Anyone want to help me get started?

There's no poll on this one, because I'm sure I'm right.

But that's the whole point! We wouldn't NEED sunglasses or visors!

I think Augusta could be a feeder, but I think you'd have to start in a bigger city. I think it would be less efficient to make the Bostonians go out of their way than the Augustans.

If you built that road, it would be pretty busy, I imagine. You might want to make it 12 lanes the whole way, with the fast lane at 200 mph.

I ain't signing on to anything that makes me go to freaking Augusta. You got that right!
