Exactly. Motorists in all 50 states DO drive on federally funded and built freeways. So the feds do get to have a say as to who can drive on them. They're still officially called "The Interstate Defense And Limited Access System."

They drive on highways paid for out of federal taxes, but which are otherwise BUILT BY THE STATES.

The only place you'll find a federally built highway is on a military reservation, national park, Washington DC, etc.

[Thomas Jefferson II]

Federally-Funded Highways? The federal government takes my money, gives it to the state, who builds a highway, and somehow it becomes a federally funded highway. Aren't they all TAXPAYER-FUNDED HIGHWAYS? How about a state not receiving funds does not pay funds either? Seeing as my state (Illinois) gets back .72 on the $1.00, I would take that deal.

These freeways are funded by the taxpayers not the Feds.
