I'd be interested too (reading this at ba.transportation).

Since California's stuck to its standards without consulting
Washington, I wouldn't be surprised if they reverted I-238 back to
California 238.

'Ya know, I have to call false advertising on your claim of, "complete
coverage of international roads...."

If your coverage is, "complete," as you claim, then where are the pics
and/or video of Yungas Road (a.k.a The Bolivian Death Road) in
Bolivia? How about The Kabul-Mazar Highway in Afghanastan, The
Sheikh Fazlollah Nouri Expressway or The Yadegar-e-Emam Expressway in
Iran or Iraq Highway 8 anywhere from Kuwait to Baghdad (maybe you can
help Wikipedia fill in their page on that one)?

Or even the Central Highway in Cuba (hell, Cuba is right next door to
the US). For that matter, I'd even settle for some snaps of the roads
along the Afganistan/Pakistan border...
