Those 4 lanes sections confuse the distinction between 'interstate' and other highways. While Interstate system is well defined, there are lots of highways that have the same driving conditions. And '4 lanes' can mean anything from 4 lanes through downtown with stop lights every block, to a virtual clone of an Interstate.
Years ago when we lived in Chicago and visited relatives in South Bend, we'd often take I94 to Michigan City, and switch to US20 (4 lane undivided), IN 2 (divided, grade intersections), and back to the US20 bypass (divided limited access). And until that bypass was extended east past Elkhart, we had to settle for more urban driving on US20, or a county road a mile south of the city limits.
