Why are there two Interstates 76, 84, 86 and 88?

misc.transport.road FAQ
All duplicates but 86 arose around the time when most letter suffixes on Interstates were removed, though not all replaced a suffixed Interstate designation. Eastern I-86 (see 6.3.6) was recently added because there were no other choices that would fit. At one time, an eastern I-86 existed from Hartford, CT to I-90 in MA; this is now part of I-84 (see http://www.kurumi.com/roads/ct/i86.html ). There were also two I-39s, but I-39 is now signed along I-90 between the two sections (see http://www.

B.2) Is the full distance 85 or 86 miles?

Athens-to-Atlanta Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
We often say "85" because that's been the mileage for so many years. In 1996, the distance changed to a little over 86 miles, because we now have to get around the new Sugarloaf Parkway. This route change is after the half-distance point, near checkpoint 4.

Why do some Interstates, such as I-180 in WY, have traffic lights or at-grade intersections?

misc.transport.road FAQ
Usually Interstates are not allowed to have any cross traffic. In fact at-grade intersections have kept the new I-86 in New York from extending further east. But in these cases, AASHTO granted variances because there was no other reasonable way to build them. Wyoming I-180 is the only Interstate with no freeway portions. There are three stoplights. Why was it commissioned in the first place? The state of Wyoming wanted an Interstate serving downtown Cheyenne.

Do Interstates have publicly-accessible U-turn ramps in places?

misc.transport.road FAQ
Yes. These are distinct from the crossovers used for emergency and service vehicles only. Many non-Interstates have such crossovers to complete the movement from a side road where a median break is not present and a corresponding ramp would be cost-ineffective due to lack of room or light traffic usage, such as on divided, mostly-controlled-access parkways, or at the location of Michigan Lefts (see Question 3.

Following enactment of the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956, officials of the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads (BPR) and the American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHO) agreed that AASHO should apply numbers to the Interstate System, as it did to the U.S. numbered highways.

Why does the piano have 88 keys?

The Piano Education Page - Piano Frequently Asked Questions ...
Well, the piano started out with only about 60 keys, same as the harpsichord--in fact it WAS a harpsichord, except that the harpsichord maker Bartolomeo Cristofori (try saying that 10 times fast!) got the bright idea of putting hammers on one (to HIT the strings) instead of plectra (to PLUCK the strings). So the piano was invented--this was around 1700, or maybe a little before that.

The biggest problem with the 88 was that the factory found out about a handful of bikes that went out with bad cam bearings, so to cover their asses they sent out the letter to everyone and as a result, scared the living fuck out of everyone. When the Motor Co. responded with only warrantying the motors with the bad bearings - after they failed, no one would accept it. The panic resulted in nobody trusts the gearcase area of the Twincams and all the aftermarket companies ran to the rescue.

Are the Interstates really safer?

th Anniversary of the Interstate Highway System -Frequently ...
One of the primary reasons for building the Interstate System was to improve the safety of the highway users: drivers, passengers, and pedestrians. Over the past 50 years, the Interstate System has done much to make highway travel safer and more efficient. Relative safety is measured by the "fatality rate" (fatalities per 100 million miles traveled, a measure used so data can be compared as traffic volumes change).
