Fun, probably. But legal?
That was one of the reasons for building the interstate highway system.
It is why there are straight sections scattered throughout.
When I was in disaster preparedness in the USAF, in NH, in the event of a nuclear war, the plan was to launch our F111s to bomb missile silos in the Soviet Union.
Meanwhile we were to move everything up to a random straight section of I-95 in Maine.
Surviving air crews were to fly down the highway until they saw us and land.
The planes were to be refueled, repaired, and more bombs loaded.
Repeat until we ran out of planes or the war ended.
It's perfectly legal to land a plane on Alaska roads and highways. I know it's also legal in some other states.
YUP, LEGAL; back when President Eisenhower started the interstate highway system, at certain intervals there had to be a 3 mile stretch that was straight and clear enough to land military fighter and bomber aircraft.
If you pay attention to your 2 lane and older multi-lane freeways they pretty much follow the lay of the land, but every X number of miles (I don’t remember the exact number now) they had to have a straight clear area for emergency landings and takeoffs.
Some of these features were built into older highways during WW-2, Highways 99 and 395 in central and eastern California are good examples.
A lot of that shoulder clearance has since been planted with landscaping shrubs and trees, big mistake in my opinion.

Of course those clear have since been planted with landscaping shrubs and trees, bad idea in my opinion.
