Oh my! At 82+ I am to old to spout history lessons as I was alive when the Federal-aid highway act of 1956 was signed by Eisenhower. It was also known as the National Interstate and Defense Highways act.
I have rarely ever heard the term "freeway" used in the East. But we do have the Durham freeway--thats what it is called but most know it as 147, Daughter had to re learn the eastern language after having lived in Cal for 10 years. I have lived in 10 States, I think, and have been to all but one + lived for short periods in 23 countries. Hear in NC its hard to understand even if I have been here more than 15 years. 82 is a long time.
