Do you use truck bypasses? Are trailers allowed to?

Often, when two major freeways merge, there are truck bypasses or truck routes. Once in a while, the signage says "all trucks and trailers must use bypass." Usually, it just says trucks, without men...

I did not realize that there are two types of bypasses -- one that goes around a whole town, and one that makes it easier for trucks where there is a junction of two highways. I have never seen the kind that goes around a whole town, but that sure sounds like a useful device.

If they ever develop one of those that will get completely around Los Angeles, I will stand up and cheer!


That was kind of the idea behind the 210, but it took so long to build that the city caught up with it. ;)
