That nickname has accrued to I-95, a highway running along America's eastcoast from Miami all the way to Maine, which gun traffickers have long used to haul guns bought in southern states with relatively lax purchasing laws to sell in north-eastern states such as New York and New Jersey, which more strongly regulate gun sales.
Palo Alto Online reports that California highway 92, which starts at Half Moon Bay on the Pacific Coast and runs east over the Santa Cruz mountains, this morning was lined with hundreds of parked cars moved by coastal residents trying to keep their vehicles out of the way of any damaging waves.
