If an interstate sign has an even number, what direction does it indicate?

  1. North-South

  2. East-West

  3. Diagonal

  4. West-East

The correct answer is: East-West

In the context of interstate signs, an even-numbered highway indicates routes that primarily run east to west. This numbering system is standardized across the United States to help drivers easily identify the primary direction of interstate travel based on sign numbers. Odd-numbered routes, conversely, signify north-south travel. Therefore, if you encounter an interstate sign with an even number, you can confidently know that it directs you east or west, validating the choice made in this question. Understanding this system is crucial for effective navigation and road planning while traveling in Minnesota and other states.
