Roads that run north/south have odd numbers. Thus, 95 runs from Florida to Canada.
Roads that run east/west have even numbers. Thus, [[Route 2]] runs from Cambridge, out through Williamstown, and beyond. I-40 runs from Wilmington, NC, to somewhere way out west. (Even , past Texas.) And Highway/Route 66 is perhaps the most famous example of an American east/west road.
Knowing this logic can (sort of) help you navigate when you are lost.
