What interstates do you guys have to travel on the most for work or life stuff?

[-]

marylander_@reddit

The one closest to your house. For me I-35

[-]

Emotional-Loss-9852@reddit

It’s only East and West in DFW and MSP

[-]

Realk314@reddit

are we still talking about 35? that's north and south.

[-]

CH11DW@reddit

Yes but in Dallas Fort Worth (and Minneapolis and st.Paul) it splits into two. 35W and 35E.

[-]

It does the same in DFW but 35 E goes north and south. On the Dallas side.. 35 W goes north and south on the Fort worth side. Unless your split is different and i'm not understanding. After you get far enough north or south out of DFW they merge back into one that also goes north and south.

[-]

CH11DW@reddit

Somehow you misunderstood me. Not sure how. I guess you thought of me referring to them as 35w and 35e, I was saying they ran in those directions?

[-]

Realk314@reddit

No i understood you, just not Emotional-loss.

[-]

Emotional-Loss-9852@reddit

I35 splits into I-35 W and I35 E in Hillsboro TX, goes through both Fort Worth, and Dallas, and comes back together in Denton, TX. It does the same thing in the Minneapolis-St Paul area.

Appropriate_Lynx4119@reddit

It’s kinda weird that of all the N-S interstates in the country, only one splits into East and West variants somewhere along its route, and this one interstate tee does so twice in entirely different places.

[-]

derSchwamm11@reddit

I joke that the real dividing line between the eastern and western US is I-35 and not the Mississippi. Therefore since I grew up between I-35W and I-35E I am from the central US

spunkyenigma@reddit

Cursed be it’s name!

[-]

casapantalones@reddit

GrimSpirit42@reddit

I live less than a mile from I-65, at the point where it is 10 miles from its Southern terminus at I-10.

[-]

United_Reply_2558@reddit

Im also less than a mile from I-65.....at its widest point, near the UPS Worldport in Louisville.

[-]

No-Profession422@reddit

Life stuff: mainly I-15 or I-215 north or south. East/west it's SR 60/91 or I-10.

Work: no interstate, unless it's because of a detour.

[-]

PNW_OlLady_2025@reddit

There's zero need to get on a highway regularly for anything I do. I avoid them as much as possible to be honest. The ones I have around me are I5 and I84 though.

[-]

United_Reply_2558@reddit

I-65

[-]

IDidItWrongLastTime@reddit

75 and 80

[-]

LogicalFallacyCat@reddit

Growing up it was the 5, nowadays it's a mix of the 71, 77, and 80.

[-]

warneagle@reddit

395, 66, 495, 95, 270, probably in that order.

[-]

hannahk127@reddit

I-4. 🫠

[-]

Watchfull_Hosemaster@reddit

90, 93, 95, 190, 290, 495

[-]

JediLincoln14@reddit

90, 94, 55, 57, sometimes 80

[-]

mmarkmc@reddit

Although not formally designated interstate, US Highway 101 is the only highway in San Luis Obispo County that crosses into another state (Oregon). Highway 101 is also the only highway I use on a regular basis.

[-]

Fly_Boy_1999@reddit

I-55

[-]

Chessdaddy_@reddit

I5 and 84

[-]

yiotaturtle@reddit

AFAIK 17 and 10 are the only ones in the Phoenix area, though route 60 also crosses it. I guess I'd say 17 and 60. When I lived on the east coast it was 93 or 95

[-]

izzabeans@reddit

I-10

[-]

brizia@reddit

287, 80, and 78.

[-]

[-]

poopoofol@reddit

I've lived in 4 states, and in 3 of those I commuted on I-95 every day.

[-]

exradical@reddit

79, 279, 579, and 376.

[-]

Stressed_C@reddit

RT.20, it goes through several towns in my area.

[-]

Low_Roller_Vintage@reddit

I take route 20 from mass to NY and back several times a year. Beautiful drive.

[-]

darw1nf1sh@reddit

I-465 the beltway encircling Indianpolis, leading to I-70 west. Almost daily.

[-]

Inspi@reddit

The one that stays closest to my house and ends closest to my destination.

[-]

rawbface@reddit

Literally the only one in South Jersey - 295

[-]

hypo-osmotic@reddit

A tie between I-90 and I-35, depending on which direction I’m going. I don’t have to take any interstate every day, though, so these are just for semi-frequent trips

[-]

BrainFartTheFirst@reddit

Mostly the i-5. There's also the 134 but that's a state route.

[-]

Aggressive-Emu5358@reddit

Well it’s a very large country and there are many. I take I-25

[-]

AshDenver@reddit

I-225 and I-25. Sometimes I-70.

[-]

phantomsoul11@reddit

NYC/North NJ: 78, 80, 87, 95, and all their various loop/spur roads in the area.

[-]

Emotional-Loss-9852@reddit

My travel is almost always state highways but I do occasionally drive on 45, 35, 20, 30, 820, and 635. Probably 35 the most of any of those.

[-]

I-84, I-205, I-5, and I-405. Drive them all multiple times a week.

[-]

selchie0mer@reddit

805, 163, 15, 5, 8

[-]

ChapterOk4000@reddit

The 8

[-]

Angel89411@reddit

There is no one interstate that passes through every state. Not even close. People are going to use their local interstate, hwy, or local roads. Keep in mind that local highways and roads can still easily take an hour depending on traffic and lights.

[-]

pokeyt@reddit

Growing up I lived in a town with no actual interstate so I’d go months without being on an actual interstate.

Today I live just off i90 and travel on it at least 6 days a week.

[-]

mburucuja@reddit

94 and 43 go through my city. 90, 39, and 41 are also in my state.

[-]

Historical_Tax6679@reddit

I-95 going through Illinois and Wisconsin.

[-]

smurphy8536@reddit

Tie between 90 and 93

[-]

Drew707@reddit

Honestly, very rarely am I on an actual interstate, but when I am, it is almost always 80 or some spur of 80.

[-]

fun_sized_gnome@reddit

I-295, I-95, I-395, and I-495

[-]

CH11DW@reddit

Co grey does a great video about the interstates and why they are numbered the way they are

[-]

RealFlatworm-@reddit

None, thank fuck

[-]

machagogo@reddit

I95 and I287.

[-]

zylpher@reddit

I80 3/4 days a week. About 20 miles each way for work.

I avoid slabs when I can. I'll take surface streets and coat myself an extra 10 minutes most of the time. If I can.

[-]

gigisnappooh@reddit

I-55

[-]

ALoungerAtTheClubs@reddit

Locally, it's almost exclusively I-95. I'll be on I-10 for like 60 seconds sometimes cutting over to a different road.

[-]

ExternalTelevision75@reddit

I do not use an interstate daily, the closest interstate to my home is about 45 mins drive away

[-]

Angel89411@reddit

30 minutes here. We usually just use a Hwy or local streets.

[-]

cappotto-marrone@reddit

I65 almost every day.

[-]

[-]

weaverlorelei@reddit

I try to avoid interstates and toll roads as much as possible, and take county/back roads.

[-]

Cheap_Coffee@reddit

I-90 and I-95. Interstates are the easy part.

[-]

SaintsFanPA@reddit

I-80 and I-280. Occasionally I-95 and I-78. I work from home, so this is only for stuff like going to our lake house or shopping.

[-]

birdiebirdnc@reddit

95/40

[-]

Bright_Ices@reddit

Interstates run north-south (even numbers) and east-west (odd numbers) all across the country. We all have 2-4 that are nearest to us (an even number, and odd number, and sometimes another 1-2 running either direction). Those are going to be the most locally traveled in that area.

[-]

CUBuffs1992@reddit

I-70 and I-25.

[-]

SouthCotton1979@reddit

Interstate 75 is closest to my house. Interstate 24 is the only one I have driven the entire distance on

80 and all it's branches, I5.

[-]

PeaksOfTheTwin@reddit

Grew up in Seattle. The only ones there are I-5 and I-90. Lived in LA for a bit and there are a bunch of interstates (wasn’t sure the exact number but after looking it up it’s 7), where they play a much bigger role in just getting between neighborhoods than in probably any other city. Now live in New York City. Couldn’t even tell you what interstates are here because I just ride the subway.
