Line 82:

Not only is the I-90 section of the NYS Thruway marked backwards, with mile numbers going down as you go east, but there are two metric only signs when you drive westbound. They are around Syracuse, which is nowhere near Canada.

The NYS Thruway admin decided to test metric signage (which I am told included [briefly] an 88 km/h speed limit sign) on the Thruway. Now the legend part: When one of the metric pushes was on, the state represenativerepresentative from that district was deadset against it. The Thruway chose his district (Liverpool, next to the former GE plant) as the test site.

If you care, I-990 is the highest number given to an Interstate.
