Zorluk: OrtaGuide and Informational Signs

While navigating the national Interstate Highway System using standard guide signs and route markers, a driver notes that primary two-digit Interstate highways follow a specific numbering convention. What direction of travel is indicated by an odd-numbered primary Interstate route, such as Interstate 5 or Interstate 95?

  1. The highway primarily routes traffic in a north-south direction.Cevap
  2. B
    The highway primarily routes traffic in an east-west direction.
  3. C
    The highway forms a full circumferential beltway or bypass around a city.
  4. D
    The highway is designated as a scenic secondary connector to state parks.

Cevap

An odd-numbered two-digit Interstate highway indicates that the route primarily runs north and south.
Under standardized U.S. highway guide sign rules, primary two-digit Interstate highways with odd numbers run north and south across the country (such as I-5 on the West Coast and I-95 on the East Coast).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the standard numbering rules for primary two-digit U.S. Interstate Highway route markers.
Primary U.S. Interstates use one- or two-digit route numbers posted on blue-and-red shield guide markers.
Guide sign standards use systematic numbering to help motorists navigate without relying solely on map orientation.
2
Apply the directional rule for odd versus even Interstate route numbers.
Odd route numbers (e.g., I-5, I-15, I-95) run north-south (increasing from west to east), while even route numbers (e.g., I-10, I-80, I-90) run east-west (increasing from south to north).
This uniform standard ensures drivers can immediately infer cardinal direction of travel from route numbers on guide signs.
