Anything above 3 lanes is no longer a highway, it's a mental illness

    Y'all realize they count all the lanes, not just the ones going one direction right? A 3 lane highway is 1 lane each direction and a suicide lane.

    I guess technically it can be a 2+1 highway if you so will, but true.

    Still, anything above 4 lanes is dangerously close to mental illness territory

    I'm not sure what the implication here is to be honest - am I supposed to be the small town man in this scenario?

    yes. calling more than two lanes each direction being "mental illness" screams "i have never been in a crowd"

    If there is that much traffic there should be a train line instead.

    While I agree in general, there's still the last bit from the station to home. I can only get a hundred pounds of kitty litter on my trike. If I need to haul more, I need an (hopefully electric) automobile. I just finished buying everything for a project I've been designing for a few years. If I had taken public transit, it would have taken 3 or 4 trips.
