70 Years Ago—Dec. 30, 1940: California’s first freeway, the Arroyo Seco Parkway, opens between Los Angeles and Pasadena.

  1. And that roadway looks like the first freeway, LOL. Very short entry and exits that don't allow easy merging. At least that's how it was back in the 70s when I lived out there. I was told it was the first freeway and that's why it is so unsafe by today's standards.

  2. I grew up down there, but I don't think I've ever driven that segment - just as well :)
