Interstate 5 

Finished in 1979, Interstate 5 was designed to be the world's largest parking lot, and from the get-go was an immediate success, offering spaces for millions of vehicles for cities and services stretching along the West Coast from Canada to Mexico.

One of the lot's biggest criticisms is the fact that it offers spaces that go through national forest land, the remote west side of the Central Valley, and over mountain passes despite lack of services and weather hazards, and as such these parts are very rarely used throughout the year. Wasted space is such a problem, in fact, that many people use it as a highway at speeds up to 70 MPH in these places in spite of its intended purpose. Uniquely for a parking lot, it also has problems with people trying to smuggle drugs and people in from both Canada and Mexico. Despite this, in urban areas it continues to be highly successful, and puts ordinary parking lots the world over to shame.
I left my car on Interstate 5 for two hours and hey, it was still there! There's also always construction, so, you know, the parking is always better and less bumpy! Maybe!

Interstate 35 

A major interstate highway in the central United States. It runs from Duluth, Minnesota, to Laredo, Texas, connecting the cities of Minneapolis/St. Paul, Des Moines, Kansas City, Wichita, Oklahoma City, Dallas/Ft. Worth and San Antonio. It splits into I-35W and I-35E in the Minneapolis and Dallas areas. Not a scenic interstate, but few east of the Rocky Mountains truly are.
If you drive I-35 through Minnesota en route to Duluth, northern cities, or cities in eastern Minnesota and Wisconsin on I-94, take I-35E because I-35W sucks Crosstown Commons. If you are going to Minneapolis or going to western Minnesota cities on I-94, take I-35W to I-494 up to I-394 and east into Minneapolis, or I-494 up to I-94 on the northwest corner of the metro.

Lesson: Try to avoid I-35W if at all possible.

Interstate 87

A 319 mile long freeway in New York. It runs from Champlain (candadian border)down to the big city (NYC). It has an intersection with Interstate 90 in Guilderland, and has 7 spur routes (787,287,387 etc;).

In other words, a long ass highway.
So when you're dead and gone......
